I had signed up to Q Danger Zone on April 1 a few weeks ago and then yesterday am I decided to go into the sign up sheet and change the name to Maize.  Over here in Cary, we joke periodically that Maize is going to get a call about some of our antics and is going to travel over to Cary and make sure we are doing our cadence counts right.    With a little help from Maize and our fine marketing folks at Highwoods.I had a plan.  The Cary PAX were thrilled that Maize was going to Q after seeing his tweet announcing his Danger Zone appearance.   Ollie was giddy, Callahan was scared (even left for the Indy) and Ma Bell thought about coming back from Jamaica early for the festivities.

Anyway…the boys were excited untl 5:44 when MaizeBurt appeared from the parking lot after hiding in Coney’s back seat for 7 minutes. With a Maize mask and the tunes.

65 degrees, humid, overcast.  Shovel flag planted.  No FNGs.  Tailgator tuned up.  Maize workout ready to go.
