The Run:
The run started from a small office strip “100ft” before “Sticks”
on Rt 44. Promptly at 6:30, they were off, across Rt 44 and into some light
shiggy. They bushwhacked to a logging road south, and gradually curved west.
There were few checks, but there also were few marks, keeping the hash pretty
much together. Only Bondo managed to get
lost.
Crossing Hunt Brook, they entered the backside of Heritage Park.
Some confusion in some pine groves had to be solved, but before they knew it,
they all found the hare and the Beer Check.All except for Bondo, that is. There
was great rejoicing. The beer and the songs began. Once finished, the hare
instructed them to retrace their steps, and to take a left at the “diagonal
tree”.
No botanists in the group could figure out what a “diagonal tree”
was. Neither apparently, could the hare. The main group was led by Flexi and Fuwangi. They
meandered for a while, getting more and more lost, until someone recognized the
trail to the Shepherd’s hut. Fuwangi and WHO at least knew enough to follow this to Chestnut Oak
Road, where they made their exit and settled down to the long hard pavement
back. (It was made somewhat longer and harder for themselves by WHO’s decision to start Heigh-Ho-ing every time a car
passed. WHO would be stupid enough to do
this?)
Back at the cars, Bondo was waiting
(Boo!). But there was no sign of WIPOS (Yay!). There
was no sign of Basket (Yippee!!). And there was no
sign of the hare (A Yahoo!! Modified only by the realization that he had the
rest of the beer). Finally, Oozing got into his car
to see if he could rescue the hare, lost on his own trail. He soon came back,
and the circle was begun, behind the Post Office (a Federal offense, no
doubt.)
Comments on the run. No Bondo at the
BC, one bimbo, some shiggy and two stream crossing were plusses. The way in was
fine and dandy, but the way back! The reality of having to choose miles of
pavement, versus getting lost with the hare and Basket led to the ultimate
score: -6.9! Hashit went from Basket to Bondo to Oozing, and somehow
ended up with Shemale Man. Go figure. The On On On
was at Chesters, and Wee Balls didn’t get arrested,
this time. There’s always something good to be said about any Monday night in
Rhode Island.
