What no sausages!

Again, Lax and Le W*nk introduced us to unfamiliar territory - Coolabah Crescent Park, which borders on the Chermside Hills Reserve. It was a pleasant trail in the middle of suburbia. Le W*nk took great delight in telling us that the trail included many sections of mud and water. He was right, a lot of hashers returned to the on, on with wet and muddy shoes. However, it was a great virgin trail.

At the on, on some were expecting the usual fare of bland sausages and bread. But, this was not the case, Le W*nk and Lax provided us with a hearty and tasty casserole - salted to perfection. 

Leave Pass entertained us with a long drawn out magic trick, assisted by a reluctant Saucy Sous. It needed some work.

Here are some shots taken by Snappy, Cashconverta, Lax and Payback:

Indulgence

Another, lovely afternoon in Samford Village. We did the usual circuit around the old CSIRO grounds. Afterwards, we headed up to the modest bungalow of Saucy Sous and Dumbbell and did some fine dining. After our food indulgence, Shock Jock entertained us with some comical magic tricks. Although it was entertaining, it does need some work.

As we prepared to go home, Snappy showed us around her getaway van. What a great set-up she has!

Dumbbell is doing the push up challenge to raise awareness and money for mental health in Australia. He's hoping to raise $500 for this worthy cause. If you would like to donate, please click on this link then click on the first link.

Tangled

Miss Demeanour had an eventful afternoon. Firstly, she missed the turnoff to Deep Water Bend (blaming Shock Jock). Secondly, as it was getting cold she tried to put on her hoody, but it ended up backwards. Thirdly, she got tangled up in some old fishing line that wouldn't let her go.

Some hadn't been to Deep Water Bend before and were quietly impressed. The trail meandered along the Pine River, through eucalypt and paperbark forests, past mangroves and salt marshes and included a visit to a bird hide. Along the way the runners came across large mobs of kangaroos with some impressive looking boomers. 

As we sat down to eat and drink and do silly things, we were entertained by a spectacular sunset - ain't nature grand!

Here is a selection of photos taken by Cashconverta, Snappy, Payback and Miss Behavin';

Moist

Predictions are that El Nino is on his way; he certainly isn't here yet. But a little bit of drizzle in Kermit's back yard couldn't dampen our spirits as we tucked into rice and mild curries and followed these up with some yummy brownies and custard . Many thanks to her for her hospitality and the nosh!

We'd met earlier up the road a bit for the run and walk. Here are some of the crew gathering at Wahminda Park for an excursion up the Ferny Grove rail trail:

 

And then it was back to Ferny Grove, where we were able to congratulate Miss Demeanour on her beautiful new shoes:

Here are a few more pics from the occasion, courtesy of Snappy:

The Hash has invested heavily in mosquito repellent for next week's meet. Slather it on, folks.
