The Beginning

Shakesbeer has been out of the loop for some time. We are pleased that he has the courage to volunteer to set the trail. The location was Joyce on Fourth, an Irish type pub in the beltline. They have a room in the basement suitable for hosting the group.

Apparently, hashers arrived and gathered at the pub. Some of us were late due to the Mission bridge construction and subsequent detour.

Not too much for pictures prior to the run, but here is a picture of the pub in warm weather and daylight.

A couple of photos of the walkers and the marks were provided as evidence that the circle took place.

The Trail

Being a bit behind the pack, some of us had to find the pack and join the run. Eventually, the headlights of the pack were sighted and the run was afoot.

With the melting conditions, the pathways were wet and icy. Challenging traction for those without spikes. Careful footing was the key.

Some parks were scattered along the way, and playing was encouraged!

More trail was discovered and we were treated to a viewpoint.

Thankfully, the regroup was near and we found the refreshments.

The regroup provided an opportunity to collect the group and score some pictures, missed from the circle.

With refreshments done, off to the pub for the Down Down’s

The Down Down’s

Off to the Joyce on Forth pub, to our room in the basement. Beer specials and food specials were available so…. a lot of eating and drinking.

Hump the Shark was religious advisor, the down down beer was procured and the ceremonies were ready to start.

A choir was selected, Camshaft and Mmmmm Lady Fingers. As they have been vacationing in warmer countries, time for some choir action.

Down down’s for the choir and the hares. A procession of other crimes were tabled and down down’s were consumed.

With all done, we were declared “on the piss”.
