The Thang:
It takes Mondays to make Fridays, so I figured we’d get our week started with a B.I.G. Monday! BIG stands for Beatdown In the Gloom . . . BombSquad Is Great; etc., etc. YHC arrived at the AO early & set out 7 cones in conjunction with other “markers”. YHC then planted the Shovel Flag & returned to his truck to warm up just a bit before other PAX arrived. YHC didn’t have to wait long, however, as Handy arrived hauling in the coupons for today’s festivities! One Call rolled in looking for “Muscle Beach” (not scheduled for today, but YHC guaranteed him something special was on the agenda)! Next to arrive was Boxcar & Skid Mark via clowncar, then Hottub (#longtimenosee), and finally Crankbait rounded out the PAX.
AO: BombSquad
