The Run:
The co-hare was waiting in the parking lot of the North Cumberland Middle School claiming that the hare was out re-marking trail because of the rains earlier in the day. A likely story! The hash believed that the hare had been caught earlier by a former school teacher who made him sit in the corner for a while, and then clap the chalkboard erasers, in retribution for sins long ago, but never forgotten.  Most were content to wait as six thirty came and went. But Bondo and Async, men on a mission, took off right on time, and found trail behind the school, heading northwest. The hare was forced to hide several times.

 

The rest of the pack finally gave up on the hare. They should have given up on the run altogether. But with three bimbos and two virgins a showing had to be made. The leaders were quickly off trail, and WHO, having set here several times before, led as they ran west and uphill. The virgins were presented with the choice of following WHO or Basket. They chose wisely and stuck with Amish and the co-hare. A false trail was ignored by WHO, who continued uphill to where he thought the beer should be. Basket blazed his own trail towards Staples Road, and as usual, became lost.

 

The true trail was stumbled upon by Async, turning northeast. He managed to find the Beer Check and the hare near a small and non-descript rock on the ridge just above the river. The rest of the pack soon caught up, even Bondo. But WHO was only halfway through the loop, and had two more river crossings before he turned back and found the group. He was just in time to nab the last IPA. Basket was caught considerably longer in some briars, but alas, even he was able to find the group eventually. Note to hash: don’t start singing if Basket is still lost. He may be blind, but he still has his hearing. It will attract him.

 

After a prolonged rhubarb session, the beer was gone. And so they were on out. Trail may have meandered to the east side of the river. It may have crossed the swamp just behind the school. It may have climbed the steep hill and crossed the boulders just north. But no one will ever know as the hash simply followed the main path southeast back to the school. They stopped just out of sight of the parking lot to circle up.

 

Ratings for the run: limited shiggy, recycled trail and no one lost taken against quality bimbos, no pavement whatsoever, and short trail. Total: +0.069! The virgins were questioned and the hashit was given to Oozing. WHO knows why! They finished up and headed for Pitchers Pub where the level of behavior sharply deteriorated. But not being thrown out must mean something.
