The luck of the Irish was strong this St. Patrick’s Day. To celebrate, YHC brought along 10 green sandbags, 3 cones and donned my green Shaggy shirt. Figured we’d have a dozen Pax. Maybe even 18. I arrived early to set-up and when I returned to the lot, with exactly 3 minutes to go, way more than 18 had gathered. Damn. I did a quick head count: 27, 28, maybe 29. May have to make a few adjustments. Time to go.
Quick jog around the park, down Edwards Mill, down Glen Valley, through the woods, past the first baseball field and back up to the basketball court. As we arrived, one more Pax joined us. No time to count. We just got busy.

We celebrated St Patrick’s Day today with lucky number 3. The 3 leaves of the Shamrock have been used to teach the Trinity: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. I also find it lucky that we’re F3, with the 3rd F being faith. And in F3 lexicon, “To be Third” means placing oneself last in priority as a servant-leader. And, in case you’ve forgotten or never knew, T-Claps stands for Triple Claps. Three quick claps that signal ultimate respect.

T-Claps to Franzia for clearing limbs from the woods.

See you in the gloom,
Shaggy
