Ladders are for reaching the precipice, for climbing to the zenith. With each rung, every elevating step, we move closer to our goal. As I climbed the ladder into the Hawks Nest this morning, I brought with me three other men, leaving none of them where I had found them and in turn, they movedContinueContinue reading “Back Blast The Hawk’s Nest – Huey Q 5/25/2023”

My three 2.0s and I were accompanied by 8 other PAX for an F3-ified take on baseball. Gates opened at 5:30 and there was a quick mosey around the flag and back. We circled up to do some pre-game warmups including Cracker Jacks (aka squat jacks), toy soldiers, and the customary downward dog sequence. WithContinueContinue reading “05/25/23 Back Blast: The Big Kapowski @ Bayside”

Incredible morning to put in some work. Thanks for having me out Steve-O.

25 took on the night rangers reboot at the county including 8 new FNG 2.0s. Was so much fun seeing the smiles, water breaks, modifying “can do” attitude from all involved.

A hawk nest is a place of new birth, exhumed from calcium crusted cocoons, begging for nourishment, shrieking for sustenance. While safe in the thatch woven habitat and well fed, the younglings are thrust into a new world, cast out of the comfort of a fortified perch, thrown off into the air, fastidiously falling toContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast Huey Q @ The Hawk’s Nest 5.25.23”

They say writing a back blast is kind of like riding a bike. No wait Big Bird said it was like a box of chocolates. No you get a box of chocolates if you write a good one, that’s what it was I’m going with that. Writing back blasts can be a challenge but whenContinueContinue reading “BB-Pelican 5/18 Q at the Agony at the County”

Weather either sucked or was perfect depending on your personal preference. I thought the weather sucked but the morning was 100% pure perfection. Rain had been forecasted for Thursday-Saturday all week and somehow it missed us completely except for the steady downpour from 0530 – 0830…perfectly in The County Fair window. The PAX were notContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – May 20, 2023 – The County Fair”

We allContinueContinue reading “BB Finkle Posh (Moved to North Posh)”

As I turned from First Ave. onto Main Street in the Hallmark Channel-esque town of Lagrange, Kentucky, I first spotted Swag’s headlights glowing ITG.
