Neither snow nor rain nor gloom of night…

Many view this as the postal slogan …. however are you aware that it ONLY is on one postal facility in New York City downtown?
Why title today’s beat down with this? Well, it was raining and gloomy …. and since it was anticipated that ETA was to bring us buckets of water I had a seperate game plan for us in case the pax wanted to safely to a Murph ( my choices were to be dips or burpees and diamond merkins or derkins as well as the squats and do these under th shelter, but thankfully the pax led me and the rest into the play area after the one mile run …. so thank you men for helping make the better choice ! Rain would actually relent while we performed our workout and I called out to the pax that for me personally I always reflect on the tireless service our men and women perform protecting this great nation . I also said  to call out if anyone knows of other pax that have served such as Oompa Loompa (marines), Slaw (navy) , and Toto ( national guard) . I was pleasantly surprised to hear that Doodles was in the National Guard as well.
Today has many meanings and I will not bore you with a recital as Roscoe very eloquently already beat me to it…. please read his BB for Ricky Bobby!
I also had an impromptu food drive of which many thanks go to JJ for remembering.
I also read Philippians 4 as it’s meaning is greatly needed now and in the lead up to Thanksgiving and it was part of Pastor Dickie Spargos message sSunday and in an interesting turn of events , JJ mentioned its use at his Church this past Sunday as well (Calvary N Charlotte )
