The View From The Hill

The Beginning

Blue Balls volunteered to set trail on a warm summer evening. He has a number of routes in the Signal Hill area that test our ability to find trail and experience both uphill and downhill.

Starting from Buffalo Bob’s Pub, a familiar place for the hash, we gathered in the parking lot to prepare for the trail.

The group started to form something that looked like a circle as they chatted and discussed recent events.

Booty Camp ran the circle as both Insane Bolt and Camshaft were out of town.

With the circle formed, we had a special announcement to acknowledge the recent passing of Whale Wanker, (Tom Wheeler) a veteran Calgary Hash House Harrier. He will be missed by the group.

Booty Camp went through the circle formalities and called the hare into the circle to describe the marks.

With the marks described, the pack was released to find true trail.

The Trail

Out of the parking lot, the pack headed North to find a check indicating a change of direction. Madly off in all directions, eventually the trail was found.

Following our uphill and downhill experience, the end of the trail was in sight. The view of the regroup vehicle was a welcome sight.

With a private room in the back, we headed over to Buffalo Bob’s to do the down down’s inside.

Down Downs

On In was the Religious Advisor for the evening. He prepared his program and the beverages for the cerimony.

On In started the program by appointing a choir of Hardly, Snow Blower and Daisy Duke.

The first down down was for the hare, Blue Balls for setting a great trail. Well marked with great views. A little light on playgrounds, but the uphill and downhill made up for this.

Down Down for the RA, and a volunteer for next week!

With the down down’s complete, it was time to enjoy the company and refreshments.
