Game On

Damn the torpedoes.  The heartier, Ohio-born half of the GORP leadership team has told the other half to suck it up; so, however fitting it might be to start this project in a bowling alley, we are full speed ahead for Poor Farm Park tomorrow morning.

The current Ashland forecast is calling for clear skies and a balmy 33 degrees by 10 a.m.  Perfect weather for sleeping in, if you ask me, but we haven’t slept in since 2003, and I’m sure John’s not going to let us start tomorrow.  Perhaps a mild case of hypothermia will teach the young man that there are certain benefits to sleeping past 5 a.m. 

We realize this may not be everyone’s idea of a good time – I’m pretty sure it isn’t mine – but for those who are game, please dress appropriately.  Meet time at the Poor Farm Park playground is 10:00 a.m. The loop can be done in an hour, probably less, if we keep moving, which we will to keep from turning to blocks of ice.  First one to Ashland Coffee & Tea gets the first cup of hot chocolate.

If the weather/roads are worse than expected and we have to change plans, we will alert everyone by e-mail no later than 8 a.m. tomorrow morning.  If you receive no e-mail from us by then, you can assume we will be at Poor Farm Park, freezing.

Hope you can join us!   –Ben
