8 PAX for 60 minutes, 6 for the full 90 at Whiplash this morning.  YHC planned to get us some decent mileage without straying too far from the AO, while taking advantage of some of the highlights of what NCMA has to offer.  That’s pretty much how we filled our 90 minutes.

COT

I don’t recall any announcements.  I apologize if I forgot them… I was pretty wiped out.

Continued prayers for Cornholio’s recovery.

Thank you to Friar Tuck for taking us out in strong fashion.

Good stuff out there to day.  Always an honor to lead such a strong group of men.
