Living on the Levee – from Mayhem

Eleven HIMs gathered by 5:31am ready for whatever YHC had cooked up. After the disclaimer, YHC added: “We’ll live on the levee today… but we will not die on the levee.” Apparently five PAX interpreted that as, “Perfect time for a mosey,” because they immediately headed in the opposite direction.

The remaining 6 headed straight for the levee where Mother Nature had laid out a nice, soggy welcome mat.
