Hey all,

Thanks to those of you who made it out.  #3 was a mightily successful
hash, as far as I can remember, which isn't all that far.  For those of
you who couldn't make it, here's a recap.

Hares: Ethan Gutmann (unnamed) and Tyson Nunemacher (unnamed)

The gathering began around noon in my driveway in Broomfield, and built
itself according to Ultimate Standard Time (UST), with the chase vehicle
filled by 12:30pm.  After a long period of standing around and waiting
for the hares to drag their sorry asses back to the start, the hares set
off through the Nunemacher's back yard, laying the first DP about 2
powders in.  Later reports confirmed that the MacDonald brothers
(unnamed) ran part of the first bad trail, which was clearly a violation
of the 3-minute walking phase, and were never properly rewarded at
down-downs.  We'll make sure to rectify this at a future hash.  The
trail snaked quickly through a row of condos and into open space, which
rewarded the meagre hounds with an expansive view of the front range. 
The hares led the pack through some minor shiggy, which included a maze
of bad trails with a pond as the focal point and a 4-way DP which proved
to be too much for their halfminds, as only one hound managed to find
the true trail arrows leading through a culvert pipe INTO the DP.  After
some consternation, the pack managed to find its way along the railroad
tracks to a beer check, where they were rewarded with a case of suds and
about 5 pounds of mud on each foot.  The second half began with a trip
up a towering hill to a countback, which could have been run through to
a profitable shortcut, but the halfminds chose the endaround and the
true trail instead.  Cum Silent Cum Deep spotted two construction
workers with hardhats who he suspected were the hares in drag, which
proved very fortunate for him, as it afforded him a view of the larger
of the two hares, trudging up a long and gradual hill a good quarter
mile off.  He managed to conceal himself on the approach and tore into
the unsuspecting hare a short distance beyond, causing much humiliation
for the overambitious hare.  The embarrassed hare quickly laid a 3/4
mile YBF to the middle of nowhere as retribution, while his co led the
lesser of the halfminds back to the pond featured in the first half. 
The pack managed to locate the finish a good while later, which was
conveniently the same place they had begun, though few recognized it at
first.  Down-downs ensued, as they always seem to, and while there were
no namings this time around, there was a rash of shoe-drinking and
headgear violations.  On-afters moved from the garage to the house, and
I don't remember much after that.  For those of you who care, Piper
(unnamed) was rewarded time and time again, as you knew he would be.

Thanks to all for a successful hash.  We'll be organizing the next in a
month or so.  If you wish to hare, please contact me at this address.

On-on!
