“The best leader is the one who has sense enough to pick good men to do what he wants done, and the self-restraint to keep from meddling with them while they do it.” -Theodore Roosevelt 8 Okwata warriors gathered in the pre-dawn gloom. At 0530 we rolled out with no …
“You cannot build a great house on a weak foundation.” – Chinese proverb 11 battle-ready men gathered around the flag in the Okwata gloom. Tclaps to Wanker (FNG) for posting, and Tclaps to Bubba & the F3 excuse page (http://f3nation.com/top-five-eh-excuses/) for the EH. I decided to continue the theme that Tool/JV started …
Pre-Thang After seeing no one was Q’ing on the GoogleSheets, YHC decided to take an impromptu step up to the plate at an AO only visiting once. Okwata has a long stretch of levee, and YHC just returned from the rolling hills of Kentucky over Memorial Day weekend. There might …
Good things happened at Okwata on Thursday am. It started a bit earlier than usual when YHC and Shorty got out there at 5am to install the pull up bars on the picnic shelter that we had previously decided would suit our needs. Okwata is a great site but that …
This was my first ever Q, so I showed up a few minutes early to make sure I wasn’t late and could plant the flag, etc. I had been out of the country for a couple weeks, so I was a little nervous about physically handling the workout, but whatever. …

7 men in the Okwata gloom wating on YHC as I pulled up without a moment to spare. Like doing SSHs during the first COP it has become a custom at Okwata to run around the Mardi Gras “Fountain” to start the warm-up. I use the quotes because it is never …
Six men converged on Lakeshore Dr. this morning and were greeted with pleasant conditions. This was YHC’s last notch on the belt for Q-ing in all six AO sites. Fortunately no rain in sight, even though the forecast looked iffy and YHC mapped out the morning assuming it may be …
