COT
Spoke about gratitude. For me, personally, sometimes when I have a bad day or I am in a valley of life, I can sometimes forget just how much I have to be grateful for. Whether it be family, job, physical abilities, mental abilities, etc., we all have something every day to be grateful for even during bad times. Challenged PAX to remember this when going through tough times.
Moleskin
Lutefisk made sure Q knew that there is more to Ridgecut than parking lot and grass field (AKA Hills). Noted, and Q will try to find some of those hills next time out! Speaking of Lutefisk, he was so excited to do ABCs in the MARY that he cut line…..Disagreements ensued.
Heard at one point that “Blackout” might be “blacklisted” from the Q lineup at Ridgecut in the future due to levels of stupid-ness today. It was a joke….at least I think it was a joke….
During a late point in the DORA, Q switched 5 burpees to 3 on the runs to Cone 5. Some PAX were grateful, others pointed that it was the Parliamentarian in me, had to modify somewhere!
Overall, Q enjoyed first time at Ridgecut and mumble chatter therein, will be back! (maybe, see 2 paragraphs up)

3rd-F opportunities still going: Chubby’s and Habitat builds
Sign up to mow Hillary Coker’s yard this Spring/Summer. Sign ups have been extended into next year as well. Great opportunity to help the family of a fallen PAX.
