Black Jack Deuces Wild

A good group of card sharks gathered this morning for a little game of Black Jack. However, counting, running, time and just good old common sense seemed to be our enemy, and although we had a good workout, we didn’t finish the game. We left the small parking lot and headed to the large parking lot doing a like backwards run and karaoke on the way and circled up right in the middle of the main entrance. [Read More]

We was a runnnnning

Monday Morning. Little bitty stingy rain. 5:30 announcement. Introduced myself, gave the disclaimer and we are off. Headed down the path to the amphitheater, and a quick HALT. Place is a flooded. Nothing like 20 seconds in and calling an audible. Turn around and head out to the main road and take alternate path to the Theater. After dodging puddles, uneven ground, and no entry signs we made our way in front of the stage.
