Sunday December 3rd

Another day another hash run, and this time we could both attend. Tracy had a lazy day first though while Tim took off into the heart of town to check out another market and the department stores. Luckily Mike and Som had mentioned that the 139 bus ran directly there on the highway and the journey proved to be quick, easy and cheap.

With Mike setting the run we got a ride from a friend of Som's. Our venue this time was an orchard close the obligatory Temple (the proximity of which would prove useful later) and our trail spent most of the time meandering on wooded trails. On the whole the way was well marked with small piles of shredded paper, but eventually Tim and several others running at the front met Tracy and the walkers coming the opposite way on what we both claimed was THE trail. Further searching revealed a marked path neither group had followed... which led right back to a road Tim had already run down!

With the daylight rapidly fading 6 of the group decided to take the road, staying on track by asking for the Temple. Two others "knew" a shortcut through the orchard, and by the time it got fully dark the 6 had made it back to the rendezvous, with no sign of the 2. They finally appeared some time later, on the road having abandoned the short cut.

This time we finished the evening with most of the hashers at a good little local restaurant nearby. The food, beer and wine kept coming and we kept singing!
