Weather: 69 degrees – hello summer humidity!

PAX: Short Squeeze (War Baby), Saban, HazMat (Co-War Daddy), Picasso (Co-War Daddy), John Coctostan, Stella, Guiding Light, City Slicker, Wojo (QIC)

YHC always looks forward to Qing in a new place, so I was excited about this morning’s effort. The question at 5;15 am was how many PAX would show up, and whether Inkwell is a 0530 hard start or more of a 0532(ish) launch. At least for today it was the latter as John Coctostan, Saban and City Slicker all rolled in HOT!

So…at 0533ish, YHC called the 9 ready and willing PAX to order, stated the mission, core principles, credo and disclaimer, while also offering a special shout out to Picasso on his triumphant return to #Natville.

With all the formalities covered, we moseyed from parking lot gathering area south to bottom of front parking lot and around the median.

Warm-O-Rama

  • Motivator (count down from 7)
  • Imperial Walker x 12 IC
  • Sun Gods X 12 IC (forward & reverse)
  • Chinooks X 12 IC
  • Moroccan Night Clubs X 12 IC
  • Abe Vigoda Windmills X 12 IC
  • String Rippers X 12 IC

YHC loves the shock and awe of the Motivator start, especially when followed by a good shoulder burner. There was the appropriate mumble chatter, which is always good! #Crowdpleaser
