Can a brain become obese?

The reason I ask is because the comments to my previous post have given me lots of food for thought. Quite a bit to digest. While I chew them over let me share some photos from yesterday’s Hash.

Leech My Nuggets was the Hare. He’d been stuck in Australia for months, so it was could to have him back. He always does a challenging and well-marked trail–yesterday was no exception. Right around 6K.
We gathered up at our starting point in Alta Vista…
…and then we headed on out.
Over a river…
….and through a rice paddy…
And onward we marched. Almost like Christian soldiers.
There were rickety bridges to navigate along the way.
And hills to climb. Actually, there was only one real hard up, long and steep. First time on that trail, so it was interesting. Actually, the steep and slippery downhill proved to be more challenging.
Catching our breath about halfway up.
The view was nice.
This one too.
Oddly enough, this was one of my favorite views throughout the hike.
I dispensed with some cookies…
…and candy along the way.
On Home at Hunter’s Jo Inn…
Ships in the bay…
and some Gash on ice.
Two virgin Hashers successfully completed their initiation.
We ran out of beer right when the circle ended, so I took a trike back to Barretto and grabbed my regular stool at Mango’s. Beach was deserted at low tide.

Other than the beer issue, it was a fine Hash indeed. Thanks for coming along.

  1. Great pics as usual. Looks to have been a good Hash. Whatever we may have said in the comments of the previous post, I remain convinced that joining the Hashers is one of the very best decisions you’ve made. (For whatever that opinion is worth!)

  2. I am sure you have mentioned this previously, but I have the memory of a goldfish – what is the approximate timing of the rainy season there?

  3. Kev, yeah the Hash combines two of my favorite activities–hiking and drinking! Seriously though, it does add a social aspect to my normally solitary walking adventures. There are places I’ve seen that I would not have had the balls to explore alone.

    Brian, generally speaking, rainy season is the July-October time frame. This year has been comparatively dry so far, but I’m not complaining. September is when typhoons typically blow through and that’s when it can get pretty intense.
