It was a morning of firsts in The Crick today.
First, it should be noted that we experienced no precipitation this morning. We are not used to a dry creek bed in these parts.
Second, we would be led by Candlestick this morning as he Q’d for the first time.
Third, we were greeted by 200 5th graders who were packing into buses to head to DC for a 2 day field trip. Both they and we were confused by our mutual presence.
With the sky clear, the PAX gathered and with a couple hundred groggy 5th graders watching, we trotted off into the ink.

COT
– TClaps to Candlestick for a great first Q. The review committee for his post-doctoral work approves of his creativity and commitment to exacting among the PAX. Look forward to more workouts with him at the helm.
-Great to see FNG Donatello out this morning! He picked a heck of a first workout to post to, but he hung in there and fit right in. He will do well, here.
-We are looking forward to the convergence on Saturday. A convoy will be leaving The Crick at 06:15 on Saturday. Meet at the Pic Nic shelter if you want to ride with us. Coffeeteria after, so plan accordingly. We will likely be back in the neighborhood around 09:30.
-Prayers for the kids (and especially the chaperones!) who are heading to DC for a couple of days from Brier Creek Elementary. (FNG Donatello’s wife and Candlestick’s son were on one of the buses). Safe travels and a good trip to all.
-YHC closed us with prayer.
That is all.
