Return to the Bog hash - last Sunday

Last Sunday Stop n' Blow and John Boy hared a "re-creation" hash, reminiscent of the of the "birth" of Stop n' Blow. Best I can tell Grind and Baby Huey were planning a kickass shiggy run in the wilds of Humble and she begged to go along so that they could teach her to hare.

I'd say they did a fine job.

The territory west of 59 at Kingwood Boulevard is also where I ran my first hash nearly 12 years ago. Heartache was the hare, and I inadvertently cut off 80% of the trail, winding up at the on in within 20 minutes.

Not so today! Trail lasted about 1:15 for me. Grind ran with his camera to get some hasher action shots.

Look at that sandy gully-impressive


The Hares, plus Smooth Stroker

This is Momma's Boy playing jumping on my back for a ride. Grind yells out before snapping the photo, "Hey, don't you doggie-style my wife in the water!"Much ridicule dished out later.








The second of two San Jacinto river crossings.





This was the first of the two crossings. Looks like something from the jungles of Malaysia, doesn't it?








A rather impressive cypress swamp. Watch out for the knees! Ouch.








More deep, dark water






Aw, the very first creek crossing! So long ago...
