Gathering in the rain, the Pax seemed excited, refreshed, encouraged to find that they would not be subjected to another Lansbury barre experiment.
Stretching OYO ensued.

A few observations Pax made this morning:
1. The shelter at Paddock was clearly designed by an Engineer. Any architect would clearly know that creating a roof with substantial openings in multiple parts of the roof might create airflow, but will also nullify its value for protection from elements such as rain.
2. 25 – 4ct flutter kicks is an act of insanity for any Q. Sounds like a great idea until you have to do it….5 times. Especially when cadence counting.
3. When you need the wind at Paddock, it is surprisingly not there for you. While Whitewall’s “working things out” didn’t hold a candle to Boo Boo’s earth rattling and ground breaking declarations, Whitewall clearly matched his level of vitality in a measure which would have greatly welcomed a quick escape via the blowing of the wind.
