OK, I know you all hate to hear about hashing, but this is special. We were at the annual campout hash and I hared Saturday morning with a man and a woman. Lets just call them HTS (Man) and 4G (woman). So, we started by swimming across a river near the spillway from Brookville Lake in IN. weclimbed up a muddy hill and ran around a residential neighborhood for awhile. At about mile 2 or so, we crossed the highway and ran up the face of the dam. OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Then we ran down the back side and curved around the side of the dam.... we needed to get up into the woods and the rest of the runners were hot on our trail. It appeared there was nowhere to go!!!! Ahead of us lay a cliff of about 500 ft straight up....... you guessed it... trail went straight up. I had to climb this cliff thing with a 25 lb. bag of flour on my back. I'm terrified of heights and when I was 2 steps from the top my foot hold slipped. I completely froze I've never been so scared. My hands sweat just thinking about falling down that thing!

Well I grabbed onto a bush, the closest one I could find.... yes... it had thorns..... I'm still digging them out of my hands. It all ended well, though. I got over the top, climbed a fence and found our trail in the woods.

We got away, unsnared (not caught) and the run turned out to be over 4 miles. Somehow, all uphill Mr. Green

Sorry to force you to read a hashing thingy, but it was FUN! I left out all hashing lingo for the purposes of making this readable.

We don't hate hash reports. In fact, we love them so much, we gave them their own special forum. Razz
