Going back through the backblasts while looking for ideas – YHC ended up in the way back machine, re-reading several of the ideas from good ol’ Side Effects. So that, coupled with one surprise YHC saw while doing a slow mosey through City Park looking for something different, would inspire …
At last, time changes are bringing back the morning sunrise at Okwata. Best AO in NOLA, if you ask YHC (which no one does. Their loss.) The Levee and The Sunrise. A great way to start the day. Its unfortunate that the time change also means summer is coming, and …
The City of New Orleans has been celebrating its 300th birthday throughout the 2018 year. You may not have known that May 7, 1718 is the date most commonly recognized as when the Frenchman Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne De Bienville, founded Nouvelle – Orleans. So in honor of NOLA’s 300th birthday …
0530 struck and the scheduled Q was a fartsack. “I’LL TAKE IT”, YHC passionately exclaimed, “The Stomp is the easiest Q there is.” As Tool pointed out, this Back Blast is the hardest part. The Thang: 30 min round trip on the traditional Bayou St. John route. YHC enjoyed some …

DISCLAIMER, let’s mosey…Grab a rock, medium, one you won’t drop on your head…Let’s mosey to the shelter (cuz it has benches and a lovely aroma). COP: -SSH x 30 IC -Mt Climbers x 30 IC -Arm Circles x 30 IC (15 ea. dir.) -J-Lo’s x 30 IC Bulgarian Split Lunge (30 …
We had a beautiful Okwata windy morning for the PAX of 10. The rain held off. Today is NFL draft day, and the only number YHC can think about is 11. Now for the thang: The PAX moseyed around the fountain and then circled up for the warm-up: SSH 25xIC, …
ANZAC Day A day of remembrance for the Australian and New Zealand soldiers who landed on Gallipoli in World War 1. Depending on your point of view, this was perhaps the most devious but poorly executed plan, or the most ill-begotten idea ever devised by humans. Regardless, the actual outcome …
