                PHHH Hashing Watershed

It was a watershed hash by Solo who rose with
the frost at 6am to psyche and set his perfectly
round marks (via flour-laden tennis ball) from
the Stonybrook-Millstone Watershed
to Crusher Rd. and (slightly) beyond.  One car made
its way slowly from Prospect piled high with undergrads
who managed to talk their way out of a ticket despite
having no license or registration with them.  They told
the cop they were on their way to a road race - and I
heard tell the same cop witnessed as such driving past
during the day's travails.

The quick jog to the pond house was appreciated by all needing to warm up in the 
cold afternoon and the veterans were surprised as Solo avoided the golf course and 
headed straight out Applewood Dr. to Moores Mill Mt. Rose Rd. for a beer check. 
Justin showed his savvy (i.e., brainlessness) ignoring Wacko's repeated cries of Beer 
Break to run solo past an F and then, convinced he was now way behind, (whilst the 
pack was busily drinking beers a scant 50 yards away listening to Brain Surgery 
Volunteer trying and failing to remember the "Head!  Who said Head?!  I'll take summa 
that" bit) went plowing stubbornly onward through the woods blindly shortcutting off 
most of the hash in a beeline to the On In.

The rest of the pack resumed the chase, Craig already a walkover win in the day's 
Geezer "I love bleeding profusely from the legs" Award.
Tricky Solo discovered that the watershed now continues
north from MMM Road, but, failing to find any passable
trails, resorted to weaving through the woods to
Crusher Rd.  At the very end, the pack enjoyed traversing
many contour lines in a treacherous approach to the RR
tracks where JS was heard in the distance
calling the On In.  HYP of course decided to guess wrong
5 minutes from the end and wound up running all the way
back to the cars.  Dancing Fool merely took a 15 minute
detour running the wrong way down the RR tracks.
The rest of the crew huddled in the
Solo-provided blanket awaiting the cars.
