Come the apocalypse, there will be a girl in every basement.


Said nobody ever.

Did our 6+ mile logging road hike, beautiful day.

Did my first hike of the year with pack yesterday. Kept it short and light - 2.75 miles, 25lbs pack, 1550 ft total ascent. Also first hike with stiff boots. I'd been on the treadmill with them to start break-in but this was first one on/off trail. Found some turkey sign and potential spots for next archery, no sheds though.

I can appreciate that type of social distancing! Well done.

Battue has two or three in his basement. As long as none of 'em spring a leak, he's golden!!

Completely out of place and sad that another would degrade themselves in the manor you just did. However, we all know you have been jealous ever since those hot blonde nymphs started sending me cell phone selfies from the girls locker room. I will additionally add......


Wait...oh yea...gotto go....the nymphs are at it again.....never mind, it is not worth my time to reply....just stunning!!!!....what a set of.....ta-ta....


MtWarden:

Great hike and pics....some of us really get it done, while others....well, no reason to be out of place....nice work....

Did the same "new" road walk from our prop that we did a few days ago... ran Strava this time, 7.2 miles and ~ 375 ele gain. There were a couple other folks out walking, which is only noteworthy because my rural area is not exactly a hotbed of outdoor exercise.

4 miles on slushy (I'm sure soon to be muddy) trails with Tiny Elvis

Seated overhead press
Dumbbell bench press
Curls
Weighted squats
Incline dumbbell press

Rained most of the day, so the getting really boring 30minute Row

25min on the dreadmill this morning. It's been probably a year since I ran on that. Went surprisingly well though I still suck at running.

Sorry man, I didn't mean to let the air out of your stories.

The glute master has spoken. With the closures are you being azz grabbed more or less? Now tell us the whole story!

Less, I'm being responsible and maintaining social distancing. But it's tough when I'm out hiking with the pack, you ever tried outrunning a bunch of 20-something joggers with a 50-lb. pack on??

Well first thing would be I have not noticed any decrease. One of the advantages of the social media phenomenon. The word spreads and the pics keep coming.

Second when a bunch of 20 something joggers are on the chase, I only let the most fit ones catch me. 😉

Regardless of gender?

Na, not a problem....the line of women defines the obvious....

Yep, and I know exactly what happens when one catches up, it happens to me all the time. You wake up.

90 Minutes with the pack today, found a couple of little hills on some open land nearby, just the right height to get good and winded on the way up, and recover on the way back down.

OK, I exaggerated a little....most are probably a little bit out of their 20's....I was just trying to keep up with you....

Anyway, a guy dumped a half cord of wood in the driveway. Measures out to be a face cord. Moved it uphill in wheelbarrow loads for about 20yards and then stacked it. Sometimes I was even a little winded when I got back to the pile. Took a little less then 2 hours.

half Murph, just fractional faster than a week ago

1/2 mile run
150 air squats
100 push-ups
50 pull-ups
1/2 mile run

You exaggerated a little? I know, and I think this coronavirus thing just might affect the stock market.

Did JeffO give you tips on how to move that wood???

No, but if the yard hadn’t been saturated, I would have had it dumped into the trailer and drove all of it around once.

Now if Jeff filled the bed of that Tundra with those big round pieces, up and over by hand.. I don’t want to arm wrestle him.

Referring to covid, hospital had its first scare last night. Went into PICU quarantine. Discharged this afternoon as negative.
