    Calvinball #1 obtained. Delicious oatmeal raisin cookie (my favorite!) from Best Buns has been consumed. I hadn’t had lunch yet so this was perfect. bacbac1786cc6808205838cc5ce7cbb7.jpgf349c1dcb3f007cbdfab962868e320ae.jpg318cdc5aea4cfcc1088da53d79ddcf27.jpg

    Time and motion specialists can now determine how long it takes for Emm to consume an oatmeal raisin cookie by noting the distance covered by the red car during this first bite

    Not being too familiar with weekday traffic patterns at that location: what speed would it be reasonable to assume for such a calculation – 40mph?

    I was going to leave hot chocolate in mine, but decided if it took awhile our tiny neighborhood residents might find it first. Congrats! It’s all in the timing!

    My First Freezing Saddles, I decided to go to the final Hains Point event. I told my wife I was going to meet a bunch of guys I didn’t know in a deserted park after dark. She just rolled her eyes at me.

    For the record, I lived to tell the tale.

    Gosh, I must have passed you. I think I looked under most of the power poles before 29 and slowed down for a lot along 4 mile run south of Columbia Pike (By then I was probably getting hypothermia because Shreve isn’t even that far south, right?). It was just too cold for me! Surprised at all the cyclists out tonight.

    Don’t you have to make a bunch of them now?!

    It probably wouldn’t have been hot any more either.

    Wait… Have I been sleeping under a rock somewhere? Did anyone else notice that beautiful Cutthroat lurking about there?

    Shreve intersection is right before the big hill where you jog up to Virginia Lane on the WOD. Sounds like you were looking under a lot of poles. Not to worry, not only was the spot less than a mile from my house, but now I have the pleasure of making 3 more? 4 more? Rumor is that a few of them may cross state borders…

    Oh no! Hobbes needs your help! He’s stuck under a piano looking thingy by a stinky water treatment plant. To rescue him and free the Calvinball, you must consume the beverage holding him hostage on site (a tool to do so is hidden within the package) and take a picture of said consumption that also shows you freed poor Hobbes.

    I propose 3 bonus points for freeing Hobbes.
