Broadmead Hills - Run #459
May 31, 2008

Nine stalwarts, including the two hares, presented themselves for today's hash on what had to be one of the most salubrious days for trail hashing. The paucity of participants at today's outstanding outing probably is a result of the nuptials of Digger and Little Blow Peep this afternoon; otherwise, why would any serious hasher miss the opportunity to challenge the exceptional hash that Beaver Fever and Just Paul set out today in the hills and dales above Broadmead and Cordova Bay (two excellent view points - well earned after some serious hill climbing).

It was unanimous - the hares were awarded an 11 for their efforts.

It was good to have Deep Shit back with us after a lengthy hiatus due to - his excuse - back injury; however, there was some concern about his remark about being "under his chiropractor" these past weeks!

We were also graced by the presence of Pussy Galore; however, in her relatively long absence from the hash she clearly forgot appropriate dress and, thus, earned a down-down.

Lakey and Jonners had excellent finishes in last weeks KOOL Half Marathons and, typically, Cocks A Fallen couldn't resist the temptation to discuss running half marathons on the trail with Lakey - into the circle they both went for their down-downs.

Stoolie, ever the gallant, offered some kind of flora to Lakey and Pussy Galore during the beer check, way up high above Cordova Bay, but he neglected the third female participant in today's hash - Flirt - a down-down for him.

The highlight of today's excellent hash had to be the naming of "Just Paul". Evidently, he experienced some confusion during the "Red Dress Run" when he had to depart early. Not having the support of numbers, he was concerned about proceeding to a place to change out of his red dress without traveling too far from the others. He couldn't decide whether to use either the "ladies" or the "gents" at the tourist information center on the causeway (in the end, he opted for bushes). However, from this day forth he will be known by the hash name of "Ambisextrious". Welcome!.

Finally, we nine did not forget absent members - Digger and Little Blow Peep. They were toasted with appropriate hash ditties.

In summary an excellent hash course today and most congenial company with ideal hash weather.

On-On
My Cocks A Fallen.
