Description, polemics, comments, and lies: The LRF took over at the last minute
from Little Fragile Broken Bone who claimed he was having a baby. LRF shook off
his football-induced torpor long enough to give us a 45 minute loop de loop
around Burnt Hill School. Not too bad when you consider that a pack of 19 swarms
through the woods and fields like some giant, all-consuming amoeba, devouring
marks as it goes. This style allows crafty vets to range widely, and it was no
surprise that at about the 12 minute mark 242 found the in-trail and could have
lead us all right back to the cooler. Indeed, at the 2 minute mark Throatwarbler
had stood 50 feet from the end as he gazed vapidly into the woods. Neither of
these stalwarts had the wit to persevere, and the rest were left to find their
way in more or less the usual fashion. 
Speaking of Throatwarblers, here is the always exciting....

Avian Intelligence Report: 
1. About 20 wild turkeys were sighted near the start.
2. A flock of robins was seen last week.
3. The New York Times (1/17/95) reports that owls are eating poodles in Maine.

GO OWLS!

What else happened? Not much, to be honest. There were thorns, there were
construction sites, there were stream crossings. There were no shootings. At the
apres, In Up to His Waste told us of his plans for the 500th. Or at least he
planned to tell us.
