Yesterday’s Hash trail was surprisingly difficult. The Hare, Leech My Nuggets, had described the first climb as “only a hump”. I was expecting an easy hill but was reminded that some people call getting fucked a hump. So, yeah, that was quite a humping we had there. The alleged purpose of the hump was to avoid the flooded rice paddies in the valley. We accomplished that for the most part but there was still plenty of water flowing along the way. Well, I don’t suppose a walk in the park would be a proper anniversary Hash, now would it? Happy 28th to the Subic Bay Hash House Harriers!
There was a long and a short trail. My group did the short trail but added 2.6K by walking to the start rather than riding the truck.Our “sane” group.

In the picture captioned “Making our way through the burning valley,” it looks as if smoke is pouring out of the carabao’s ass. I love it.
Happy 28th! And many happy returns.
HaHa! I hadn’t noticed that! Good catch!
Any of the original harriers still around 28 years later?
Sadly no, some of the oldest members are still alive but no longer participate.
