My first post with F3 was on a frost covered Saturday morning with the MeCa pax in North Charlotte.  MeCa stands for Mecklenburg/ Cabarrus as it was planted to grow away from Lake Norman and Metro.  The Highland Creek neighborhood is where it all began and today has expanded through Harrisburg, Concord to Kannapolis China Grove, Mint Hill and more.  Definitely worth a clown car trip sometime.  I remember two GasHouse clown trucks rolled up there one Saturday back in the early GasHouse days.

Back to the story… We gathered at Mallard Creek Park on Saturday, February 2nd, 2013.  It was cold. I had come in unannounced, so I didn’t know anyone.  I’m not sure I liked it, but I needed it, and in a short time I was hooked.  In these ten years I have gotten to experience many things and meet many great guys I probably would not have as a sad clown.  Thanks to all of you and cheers to 10+ more!
