YHC hadn’t gotten a chance to scope out this AO yet so I arrived a little early to find none other than a couple of vehicles I recognized (Seuss & Gold Digger of course) puttin in some EC.  I dropped off a water bag (more on that later) then returned to the parking lot.  I walked around a bit to see if what I had planned in my mind would work on site.  All looked good and the PAX were starting to arrive.  13 showed to know!
