Warm-O-Rama
8 HIMs decided to show up at Gridlock this morning, despite the perfect combination of terrible weather. Hours of rain over night to saturate the ground, constant drizzle throughout the beatdown, cold enough to be terrible but not cold enough to snow. 8 showed up despite the perceived sarcastic remarks of QIC about how this NYE beatdown would NOT suck.
Nevertheless, the beatdown that ensued was a great reflection of what 2020 has been: A year that has by most measures sucked. We enjoyed a playlist with many of the least liked songs played at F3 Lex all year (T-Swift 22, Twisted Sister X-mas, anything Lansbury played) but Oshag wasn’t there to complain about any of them.
Providing a small amount of hope, soon to be dashed, Pax gathered under the shelter of the baseball facility for the warm-o-rama.

As we wrapped up 2020 and all that was awful, we have many things to be thankful for in this year and in the hope of the year to come:
– We’re thankful for F3, what is has meant to so many of us through this tough year.
– Great areas of growth in F3 Lex, soon to be 2 new AO’s, several new pax
– Oshag wasn’t complaining today
– Raquel hit 100 posts for the year!
– Looking forward to 2021 and a much better year!
