The Dirty Dozen…minus two
After a hard night of campaigning coming from the Fury camp YHC was holding hope we would have 12 pax posting for a little rendezvous at the Shipyard. We had 10. But what a solid 10 we had! I know the numbers have been down some from what #theWood is used to and I don’t […]
Recruiting is an ugly business
After a 48 hour recruiting blitz to increase numbers at Fury, YHC was anxious to see the turnout Saturday morning. Boy George and Spud were present when I pulled up, but no one was else was to be seen. Had my efforts been in vain? Luckily, I checked my twitter feed and noticed that my […]

Flying the Hindenburg
YHC has had the pleasure of posting to workouts with BLIMPS in the past and recently punched the passport at #GideonsHouse up in F3SwampRabbit where we built 10 BLIMPS. That was pretty #Turrible.
