NMM:
A fairly flat Ardmore route greeted a pack of pax, one of whom was an FNG lassoed by Double Wide(?).
Caleb Polstra is from Lansing, Michigan, attended Hope College (as a 6th generation student) and played basketball, is “about to be 24”, did the Fellows program, works “down the street”, a Green Bay Packers fan.
Burns blurted out “Tarkenton”. A strong proposal that met no resistance. It was quickly modified to “The Tark” which is a cool name, if you ask me.
Burlap and Mutton left early and arrived….early.
Double Wide found The Tark and Bernie after others (YHC) had departed.
Have a good week, fellas. This was the easy part.
