The Foggy Atlantis and Splashing Merlot

  • When: 10/20/18
  • QIC: Pew, Buckner, & Boots
  • The PAX: Sludge (R), Buckner, Boots, Woody, & Herb (FNG)

Conditions: 80 degrees – Not Fallish @ all…the True Atlantis

5 Pax arrived to conquer the foggy, humid Atlantis undeterred by the fartsack.   YHC & Buckner stoked after our Knozit-style interview with FOX 10.  Splashing Merlot from the PAX X 3 seemed to be proof of our stokedness.  On the other hand, we are excited for the Sadclowns in Mobile.  One more opportunity to see MobileRising.  What is true is that we all posted and got better.

Locomotive and Hostile Sprays

2 PAX attacked the rumor of hurricane conditions in The Atlantis Gloom.  Sluffing off the cold stares of static jesters, YHC reeled in the PAX coming in hot.  An exchange of gloom greetings was in order, posted the shovel flag, who had succumbed to the fart sack at the last outing, and center field was taken.

Condition: 68 deg F w/a breeze off the pond

NO FNG’s nor disclaimer due to YHC (will correct the void)

The Thang:

Mosey to the center of the park (still sluffing off the glares of the jesters)

  • SSH x 20IC
  • TTT x 20IC
  • Imp. Walkers x 20IC
  • LBAC x 20IC

String of Pearls

  • (Legs) 1st stop – 10/20/10 Lunges, calf-raises, mountain climbers OYO
  • (Arms) 2nd stop – 10/20/10 Merkins, DIPS, CDD OYO
  • (ABS) 3rd stop – 10/20/10 HT, Crunches, AH OYO

Mosey back to the base of the first of many stairs.  PAX leaped over a locomotive that had inadvertently transgressed the path of THE ATLANTIS.

The Climb

  • Box Cutters @ bottom – 10 OYO
  • Calf-Raises @ middle – 20 OYO
  • Jane Fonda (L-side) @ top – 10 OYO

The PAX where ambushed by hostile sprays erupting from the ground.  Reminded YHC of when God watered the earth with a mist from the ground (Gen 2:6) so, the PAX considered it grace and accepted it as such.

The Decent

  • Jane Fonda (R-side) @ top – 10 OYO
  • Calf-Raises @ middle – 20 OYO
  • Hello Dollies – 10 OYO

Rinse and repeat: Conquered All Stairs around the Park

Time elapsed before YHC could call out the next stage of punishment: ELEVENS (MH/Burpees)

COT/Moleskin

The book of James tells us to confess our faults to one another to be healed. Confession is not for the purpose of shaming, but to bring our unloveable parts into the light to be loved. This requires two things – 1) that we are open and honest in our confessions and 2) that we are trustworthy enough to receive the confession of others.
