A peaceful easy feeling

A pretty laid-back Hash trail yesterday, with one moderate climb and a mellow down. That suits me just fine. I started the trail ahead of the pack and left the Hash circle before it was over. Ah, the freedom to do what you want, when you want, with whoever you want is definitely underrated.

The trail started at the VFW, then up into the hills on the My Bitch path, down into Marian Hills, back through Alta Vista, then out to Baloy Beach for the On-Home at Da’Kudos.

On-On!
The climb begins
Steppin’ it up
It got a bit steep in places, but not for long
Once up top, it was almost like a stroll in the park

And another from on high

The Easter Mountain shot
Folks doing some work in the wilderness
It was a well-marked and easy-to-follow trail
It was hot in the sunshine yesterday
That’s Alta Vista off in the distance
Going down
The long and the short of it. I chose short.

The trail included a beer stop at Snackbar
I made it On-Home to Da’Kudos
Calamari for dinner
And beer for dessert.
Time to circle up
Hares on the ice
To be honest, I sometimes find the circle rituals a bit too much. But I also tend to be not all that sociable, so who am I to judge? The floating bar was enticing me, and before the circle ended, I had made my escape.

After a few beers on board, I walked up the beach to McCoy’s for my nightcap. I even sang a couple of videoke songs. All in all, a pretty fine day.

I’ll be back on Baloy this afternoon for my first date with Darlene, the gal I “met” on Date In Asia. Looking forward to seeing her in person. When I was telling her about the Hash, she must have done a Google search because she sent me some pictures of me at the Hash. And they were from my blog! It’s a little scary to think she may be reading my diary, but since she hasn’t backed out of the date, maybe I haven’t scared her away. Yet.

I’ll let you know how it goes tomorrow.

  1. “Hares on ice.” Never did like using the word “gash.” Yeah I still here, read every day.
