Welcome back, Floater!

This Sunday we welcomed Floater back after her epic and mammoth tramp along the Bibbulmun Track. It was great to see her and to hear some of her traveler's tales. We commemorated the occasion with a special Hash award:

Lax had set the trail, and Le W*nk refreshed it for the walkers, so it should have been well marked...and in response to a special request from Le W*nk we will officially record that it was. We wound in and out and up and down in the burbs, and spent a bit of time in the bush behind the houses as well. The runners added an extra loop to the walkers' route (except for some SCBs, who charitably won't be named. You know who you are).

Back home in the luxurious surroundings of the hares' patio we dined on pasta and salad, followed by crumble. There was not a sausage in sight. Many thanks to our hospitable hares!

Here are a few pictures from the occasion, courtesy of the indefatigable Snappy.

"O horrible, o horrible, most horrible!"

Yet another year has rolled round, and we once more took off our masks and makeup to reveal our real selves. What a good looking group gathered at Budgie and Miss Behavin's this time round!

Strictly speaking, it was the day after Halloween (except in places like Hawaii), but some of the locals had gone completely overboard and weren't letting their decorations go to waste. Our route took us past this amazing animated display:

 

 

It'll be good to see what these people do for Christmas.... The walkers circled the lakes, and then took off for a scenic homeward stroll along the North Pine. The runners added another little excursion out and back along the river on a trail whose markings had survived all that the clouds could throw at them....

Here are a few more shots from the walk, courtesy of Snappy and Saucy Sous:

Back home at the hares' place we feasted on blood and brains - only joking, on a wonderful selection of tasty fare for carnivores and vegetarians alike! Many thanks to Budgie, Miss Behavin' and Nipper!

Here are a few more shots from our happy snappers.

This week saw a couple of hashers knock off some long-term goals. Floater completed her major expedition along the Bibbulum Track in WA - 1000 km in 53 days! An amazing solo trip - well done, Floater!

 

 

And B&W completed the Noosa Tri in a sliver over 2 hours, which works out as 0.0015723 of 53 days. Does that mean anything?
