HASH TRASH - RUN 684
A Timeless Experience...
Place: Netanya
Hare: Deliverance
Deliverance claims* she suffers from both ADHD and dyslexia, and the claim is apparently true. Though the only medical professional the Holyland Hash has on staff is Dr. Do-little, a diagnosis might be rendered nonetheless from Saturday's Hash. As Deliverance herself warned us: "There's blobs on the left, blobs on the right, some might've got blown away, I'm telling you, the LAST thing I needed was to set this trail". The run, she estimated, would take about 40 minutes. And off we trustingly went.
On-on! The first thing that happened was that we lost the trail. And the second thing, too, as the citizens of Netanya apparently don't like their sand lots strewn with flour, preferring garbage instead. Eventually a whole hold was located, we regrouped, crossed the highway and headed for the sea.
The Hare dashed ahead to make sure that at least one of her markings had remained intact, leading our merry band down the garden path -- which was really more of a trek down a cliff. Once on the beach, we set out for what turned out to be rather a long stretch of running on soft sand while trying circumvent the hard rubber "matka" balls, ignore the horses being driven into a frenzy by their pimply-faced adolescent riders, and in general block out the things that make Netanya a place to be avoided rather than embraced.
Somewhere along the way -- apparently near the start -- we lost Dr. Do-little who, in the absence of flour marks between which he would normally short-cut**, decided to take a sentimental journey around downtown Netanya. He did not get mugged, thankfully.
Eventually, there was a halfway point (sans Dr. D) and "Joe the Button" was chanted, rather than sung, but apparently that is how it actually goes. Taking pity on us, the Hare cut the second half short and sent us back to the circle and Down-downs.
After a month away, Twin Peaks returned from the truly joyous duty of being a new Savta ("grandma") with gifts for all - a photo of new grandson Mason John, and packs of Jelly Belly Sports Beans*** for all.
** Slowly we are beginning to get ahold of his technique.
*** This is a very tasty genetically engineered energy treat that somehow, despite brilliant fluorescent coloring, has managed to be categorized as "All Natural".
