Back to the 60’s

December 15, 2020

WHEN: 12/10/2020
QIC: Swamp
PAX: Wreck it Ralph, Jellystone, Pallino, Cardiac, Cosmo, Bellhop, Boucher, Sweater Vest, MLP, Awesome Baby

11 Pax gathered on a frozen morning but were greeted by a warmed up Cardiac who posted for EC.  The QIC explained today was all about going back to the sixties.  One of the benefits of living in NC is that it’s not uncommon to have a handful of days in December with temps in the 60s.  The forecast was to get to 60 so  that was used for motivation.

WARM UP

Ran 1/2way around the peanut, stopped due construction fence.

While listening to Elvis Presley’s Here Comes Santa Claus the PAX did leg raises each time we heard Santa.  Despite almost getting run over we finished strong.

COT

Jellystone announced he had an interview later in the day for his dream job with ENO River Parks, to head up their outdoor education program.   The PAX wished him good luck.   Boucher mentioned on Dec 21 Saturn and Jupiter will align and form a double planet.  Will be a rare event that should be nice to experience https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/jupiter-saturn-double-planet-great-conjunction-winter-solstice/

Pretty amazing that in a year which had so many things out of alignment we can look to the sky and re-align.
