YHC is a rare poster at Flatline primarily because Parliament is the closest AO to my house.\u00a0 But original site Q Beverly signed me up months ago so the time was here.\u00a0 YHC is familiar with the AO having posted to numerous UAs and thought how about a trip to Old Salem – never done during any of my UA postings.\u00a0 It is a little far but when you don’t warm up as YHC thought the custom was for Flatline you can make it down there and back in plenty o time.<\/p>\n
At 0530 Verizon time we began and the pax\u00a0galloped down Cherry and\u00a01st St following\u00a0a Q who was on a mission knowing the distance we had to cover.\u00a0 This early exit from the parking lot would prove to be significant to the aforementioned Beverly.<\/p>\n
A variety of dynamic SSHs, butt kickers, hi knees, cariocas and maybe something else took us from Cherry to Main.\u00a0 Where we stopped for a brief first Thanksgiving lesson and learned according to the know all source Wikipedia, some of the meats served by the Pilgrims were seal and lobster.\u00a0 Therefore seal claps and dry dock lobsters (aka DQ’s dry dock crabs)<\/p>\n
Mosey on the coffee pot on Main and perform 10 each leg of one leg dead lifts – we kinda looked like coffee pots.\u00a0 One beverage for the meal taken care of.<\/p>\n
On to the baker where we did a few things for our buns – squantos (see what I did there) and J Los.<\/p>\n
On to the square where we did a small four corners with Cabbage pickers, Turkey humpers, pickle pounders and Merkins (because Thanksgiving is a\u00a0great\u00a0‘Merican holiday) 10 oyo at each corner with a repeat.<\/p>\n
Back up first with a speed bump at the coffee pot.\u00a0 Then over to the strollway and to the parking lot under the I-40 bridge where we found some rocks that reminded YHC of footballs – another great Thanksgiving tradition.\u00a0 We first curled them because you’re often curling a beverage while watching football. Then we did bent over rows (snapping) overhead press (Touchdown) and finally we put our hands behind our head as if taking a nap and did a few skull crushers.<\/p>\n
Back up the strollway to 1st then back up Cherry to the parking lot which allowed us enough time for Sumo Drill which prepared us for those family fights that we get into after a long day of eating, drinking and rooting for different teams.<\/p>\n
Finally some Mary which included many of our favorites some called by other pax.<\/p>\n
We’re done!<\/p>\n
NMM<\/p>\n
Our prompt departure left Beverly behind and he ran around downtown searching for us which at his speed he covered about 10 miles in 42 minutes.\u00a0 He did show up in time for countarama and COT so his attendance counts.<\/p>\n
Welcome FNG Shingles fka Chris Ryer (sp?) – brought by Hedwig.\u00a0 Shingles has worked in roofing at some point in his young life but that was lost on the Q who was much more interested in PA, baseball and him being another doctor in our midst.\u00a0 My recording device confirms he said something about roofing which Beverly (possibly others) picked up on.\u00a0 When “Shingles” was nominated YHC was clueless where that came from.\u00a0 #Qshouldpayattention<\/p>\n
Thistle seems to have an almost unhealthy interest in the Charlie Rose story that was hot off the presses #f3noshowerzone<\/p>\n
On a somewhat related note, a\u00a0couple of the young pax seemed to know exactly where the Salem College dorms are<\/p>\n
Great mix of respects, ayes, hates, and hate hates as well as long time dash pax and newcomers<\/p>\n
Admittedly the theme was a little weak – not many food related exercises in the f3 lexicon but it was fun to venture down to Old Salem<\/p>\n
Lots of MC but isn’t that why we come – at least it is for BAM<\/p>\n
COT<\/p>\n
YHC took us out giving lots of thanks.<\/p>\n
Always an honor -DQ<\/p>\n
