I found out this morning that these Pax are strong, but their eyesight sucks.  Wirenut saved the day lending me a work light so everyone could read the WOD.

Gearwrench, Slaw, and Purple Haze just devoured each Pi set completing more than 2 Pis each. Pall Bearer, Pony Boy, and I were working hard completing 2 Pi rounds each. Wirenut got in a full round and a Cow Pattie because nature called.

If you weren’t present, you were missed.

Unspoken requests

 

This has been a rough week in our communities. 2 young men lost their lives this week and it has been weighing heavy on my heart. I am thankful for each of the HIM that show up in the gloom when I am present. It makes me a better man, husband, and father. Remember to tell your family you love them, hug them, and show up for them, we are not promised tomorrow.

Ozark out

 

800 Squats?!!!!

I rolled into Folsom as 3 pax took off for some EC. It was good to be out in the gloom with my brothers.  I was pondering a recent poem I had read and the challenge of our witness. How many times have we hesitated to share our faith and allowed someone we call a friend to not experience God through us?

 

“My friend, I stand in judgement now;

And feel you are to blame somehow.

On earth I walked with you day by day;

And you never did point the Way.

You knew the Lord in truth and glory;

But you never did tell me the story.

My knowledge then was very dim;

You could have led me safe to Him.

You taught me many things, that’s true;

I called you “friend” and trusted you.

But I learned now that it’s too late;

You could have saved me from this fate.

We worked by day and talked by night;

Yet you taught me not the light.

You let me love and live and die;

You knew I’d never live on high.

Yes, I called you friend in life,

 

And trusted you through joy and strife,

And yet, on coming to the end,

How can I call you friend?”
