Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow – GiddyUp Laramie

YHC had the Q for the second conducted workout of the F3 Laramie Launch Week and was excited to get back out into the snowy #gloom to conduct a beatdown at AQ GiddyUp.  It was 15 degrees as YHC exited the #fartsack, layered up, grabbed #shovelflag and headed out the arch to my waiting trusty Jeep stead.  Swept the snow from the windshield and made my way to the site.  Snow plowers were out.  Trudged to the site.  Planted the flag in a suitable snow pile, then created a video to document the moment.  Made a bad assumption that YHC might be solo due to the weather and the fact that Hoosegow had notified of flu symptoms the night before.  Then, with 15 seconds to spare, from the gloom approached an FNG.  Greetings exchanged, and we were off like a dirty shirt….

• Prayer Requests: Acquaintance dealing with significant medical issues for the father and his son; workplace leadership transition and uncertainty; completion of Hot Pursuit’s house and travel mercy for his M coming to visit Laramie next week and house search; strength and wisdom to meet the challenges of the day

Moleskin:  Great way to start a Friday.  Was happy to have a buddy in the gloom as we carefully negotiated the slick snow-covered sidewalks and got ‘er done.  Hoping to continue a slow but determined PAX build in Laramie.  The #shovelflag has been planted  #LaramieRising
