Run #1046 - A Magical Run through a Winter Wonderland

It was a magical run. Seldom are we so fortunate as to have such a wonderful opportunity to enjoy nature's treats. But, THIS Monday was an exception!

Alas, only 26 hashers showed up for the circle. Nevertheless those of us who were smart enough to realize just how beautiful a winter run in spring might be were treated to a delightful run.

It was warm enough for shorts. It was warm enough that we didn't need toques and gloves. Fresh snow has a certain charm to it and Lumberjack experimented with the idea of pissing people off by throwing snowballs.

Mum had a better idea. Never piss Mum off because Mum doesn't piss around! As soon as she realized what LJ was up to she nonchalantly walked over to his supply of snow. Next she scooped up most of it and with a single motion she deposited all of it in Lumberjack's face. Well LJ it would appear the amateur took on the pro! Too bad we didn't have a camera because LJ looks kind of neat with big fluffy white eyebrows.

Well, we circled up and made our announcements and received our running instructions and then we were off like the bride's pajamas.

West we headed, westward hoe. Through the dale and along the snowy trail over hills and bridges too. I figured we would be crossing the Elbow River at least 15 times. I think the hares figured that the whole trail was 100% shiggy so the river really wasn't much needed.

We wrapped around Lindsey park at breakneck speed and headed south. Along the way Right Bun discovered how much fun it can be to play with her pussy. She looked more than a little pleased as she gently stroked it and made it purr. This of course was much to the delight of the hounds nearby who found this somewhat tantalizing.

The trail took us to a little park that was almost surrealistic. We headed up a little cliff and the snow covered branches seemed to almost embrace us. This part of the trail reminded one of a romantic sleigh ride (where is that Right Bun when we really need her? She is an inspiring woman.)

By this time, Snake was getting bored and was looking for a little excitement by trying to be a big prick, but his attempts to shake the trees so that snow fell down our necks and under our tee shirts failed miserably. Well, It would have been funny if he'd been successful. It would have been even funnier watching him swim the Elbow river!

Along the lookout ridge above the Elbow we treaded enjoying a wonderful view of a down town Calgary that looked about 40 degrees colder than it really was!

Next we crossed the cemetery. The wind howled and the fog rolled in. Snow swirled about our feet. We could barely make out the distant bridge that lead over McLeod trail. On we pushed... left foot, right foot, left foot, right foot, ever wary of ghosts and goblins attacking from the hazy shadows.

Hashing people are rather brave... at least the 26 who came for this run are rather brave. And the rest? The idea of a "wuss" comes to mind.

Eventually the trail started to wind to the North and soon thereafter another well laid trail was laid to rest so to speak. Put another way, we hashers anticipated eagerly a rest after a great lay... trail that is... A great laid trail. Well, you all know what I mean.

The trail had a great lay to it. There was a great lay to the trail... (on the trail perhaps?) Hashers love it when they have enjoyed the great lay of the trail? Then we get a chance to rest. A well deserved rest after the great lay of the trail.

Well however it is stated. The trail had a good lay to it and we laid it to rest and forgot about the snow
as soon as the bar was in sight.
Back at the bar it was clear that the trail had been a fruitful one because we had multiplied while enroute. In fact there was a 38% increase in the hashing population. This is quite amazing because I don't think anyone saw quite how it happened.

But nevertheless, it did happen and this is another reason why it was such a magical run.

Next the BUNS took over and organized the ceremonies.

ACD, Twisted Sister, Hardly and Dastardly delighted us with their off key renditions of the songs of the hash.

With the choir in the background the following hash fellows were honored:

Nipple Detector - tobboganing in May

I AM - treading on the head stones. Perhaps a bit of necrophilia was involved because she was squirming on the head stones.

Hash Test Dummy - For observing that the river was not as deep as the shiggy (snowy shiggy) on the run.

Neon Stripper and Knobby - for being such nice hares and for a well marked trail in spite of the fresh snow. If anyone can remember the run from the week before, this run was in stark contrast because on the previous run the hares managed to HIDE the marks UNDER the snow. So it was toasted as the BEST JIGGLE BELL RUN and this was somehow appropriate given the Jiggle Bell tee shirt that Right BUN was wearing.

Wet One and Smirk - for wearing r*** shirts - and THEN suggesting that they were not in fact r-word shirts when we ALL knew they were!!!

Dreary - Spaghetti straps and Women's underwear. We need the words for the sheets. This was inspiring.

Ben Wa (without balls) - she's having a birthday turning 29. I don't know who was #1 and I sure don't know who is #29 but if Ben Wa is turning 29 then that is worthy of the hash sheet and maybe a little trophy too.

Lumberjack and Mum - for tossing snowballs. Well - Mum didn't really toss snowballs... it was more like an avalanche.
Sticky Lips and Tiny Bubbles - Slips because she likes snow in May and TB because when its spring he wears short! Dam it - its spring you know!!! Apparently Left Bun thinks snow in May is ridiculous.

Kwacky Horror - for showing off the tee shirt that the rest of us have to wait for.

Doris Day - bashing without hashing (thanks for the sheets)

Lay em in Snow - performing a cameo appearance. Well - he says he is injured but he'd get more sympathy of we could see the cast and it was bigger and he had a wheel chair with his leg up in the air.

Right Bun - well, Right Bun was enjoying her pussy on the run. This was rather inspiring.

Lumberjack - something about wanting a bigger pussy next time.

AA - encouraging hash men to drift to the dark side... AA grabbed Whale Wanker's ass while on the run. Then Whale Wanker grabbed AA's ass and we all had a good time.

AA - for putting his ass up for grabs.

Specimen and Ben Wa - For not encouraging Ben Wa to talk so much.

Left Bun - for dragging the husky through the snow.

Shack Shock - running behind the dog and letting it break trail. Or for running behind the dog and letting it break wind. One or the other...

Whale Wanker and Snake - the passing of the hash shit... for encouraging AA to go to the dark side.

Bobbin Robbin - 10 months of bashing without hashing and not having a crutch nor a cast, yet claiming he has been injured.

Smirk - he was the ONLY one who got his feet wet.
This was in the bathroom I think.

On On!
