20 men appeared in the Thunder gloom yesterday morning ready for work and ready to help F3 Columbia hit 150 pax posting on the same morning (we hit 160…boom). The men of Thunder did their part on both fronts and men got better. (Side note: YHC is usually a same day backblast kinda guy but was informed just before walking out the door to work yesterday morning that his finished basement was covered in raw sewage…soooooo…yesterday was spent dealing with City of Columbia, plumbers and expensive cleanup. A backblast would have been a treat but #cobains all the same.)

Moleskin:
– Nice work by the men of Thunder. The work was copious and the #mumblechatter was limited – just like YHC likes it. Thunder men work too hard to talk. Oxygen was at a premium.
– Kotters to several guys who haven’t been regulars. We’ve missed you and we’re happy you’re back. Keep coming back.
Announcements:
– F3 #theSpur launches TOMORROW, Saturday morning at 7:00 at the Blatt PE Center field (Wheat St. near Sumter).
– #Woodshed 1-year anniversary #convergence is Saturday, 8/29 at the shed.

– Lots of opportunities to get involved with leadership this fall. Vacation season is coming to a close and it’s time to buckle back down.
