It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

And it was ushered in by perfect gloom temps of approximately 68 degrees.

Rolled into Cornerstone church several minutes early and took a run over to the cemetery for some hill. Singular. Back just in time to grab the speaker, turn on some NIN radio, and greet the crew. No FNGs. Two FNG2M. Never met them before. Glad to know Jeter and Charmin. [Read More]
