Saturday with O’Douls

Condition- the usual- hot, humid and sticky! low 80s

Cross-Stitch asked mid week if I would interested in taking on the Saturday Q… YHC hasn’t Q’d a Saturday in quite some time, so this was a great opportunity to support a great AO. Also, I could reign in the Saturday shenanigans that either Candy Cane or Beefsteak would’ve had planned after an 8 mile run 🙂 Soooo you’re welcome all! 🙂

After arriving at the AO, Pikachu, Cross Stitch, Speedbump and Rousey were taking a little pre-“run” (walk) around the AO, so I joined. I realized at the concession stand that we needed to haul it back to give the one minute warning. Actually, I called a 1/2 minute warning.

Mission and Disclaimer was given.

Announcements- Q sheet open for August, tentative date of 8/29 for Freed-to-Bleed, Dads Camp Thunderbird 8/19-8/21, Discussed more consistency with the backblasts by all PAX.

I prayed us out focused on “God doesn’t cause it, but cures it in our lives”- prayers for Camel and Elmers dealing with personal family challenges, praise to Pikachu’s daughter’s volunteering and others. There was a long list. GOD IS GOOD!

As always, it’s an honor to lead, especially back out on a Saturday!
