When scrolling through the Exicon in search for new ideas that have not (to YHC’s knowledge) been executed in/around Carpex and you don’t even get past the letter B… you know it’s going to be a good day. _NMS: YHC was ready for EC this morning, but the old bowels had another idea in mind. EC was skipped for a trip to Harris Teeter and back._ 22 Bros meet up at the Field of Dreams. [Read More]

18 HIMs met this morning at the gloomiest AO in Cary, except that clear sky and nearly full moon made it relatively bright. I was dismayed to learn that several pax showed up for the Riptide beatdown not realizing I picked up the Q instead. I don’t blame them, hell I was trying to do the same thing! One FNG this morning courtesy of Honeycomb, so the full, drawn-out briefing was in order. [Read More]

Cool & crisp at FOD this fine morning! Ten HIMs gathered – No FNGs, only familiar faces. F3 intro given & we started with the pledge & moved out to a close-by parking lot. Shut-In let me know that I’m the 39th Q he has graced his presence with this year to date – I’m so honored that I finally make the top-40! With that, we rolled into: The Warm Up [Read More]

It was a beautiful morning. 47 degrees, a bit damp…a good day for F3. I just returned from NYC and was slightly unprepared… though it didn’t stop me. 23 PAX were waiting for me with my on-time arrival with a minute to spare. Banjo was not so lucky…yes, you guessed it, penalty burpies for Banjo’s “not-so” on-time arrival. The Start The Pledge We then jogged (plus side shuffles) up to DDMS in anticipation to find the rock pile along Davis Dr. [Read More]

FOD was my first Carpex Post and so is VQ now. A few fist bumps with PAX, Words of encouragement and support, butterflies in the stomach settling down. 31 Strong for this VQ No FNG’s present.

Descending from a Labor Day Weekend mountain-top experience of Rainbow Trout, Largemouth Bass, and campfires was hard enough. But when the first two sentences spoken to me were “Sky Blue was worried you wouldn’t make it.” and “Can we use your Old Glory calf condoms as a shovel flag?”, I knew we needed to re-instill some semblance of order and discipline in Carpex (amiright, Nantan?). Standards have to be met and exceeded here people.

24 PAX gathered at their friennd Mikey’s house on Monday morning for the usual hang out, but that’s when everything changed. We got the news that evil fat cat developers were buying land and planning on tearing down our houses to build a golf course…bummer. This group of misfits started the day with the pledge and a quick jaunt around the pickle. Circled up on the basketball courts. The Walsh family is always so accommodating and polite, so of course we start with Good Mornings. [Read More]
