| As promised by Ghost Rider at circle of the 4th Annual Bad Moon Rising hash, ChooChooH3's hash #90 was a Choo-Choo travel
hash, with the plan for ChooChooH3-ers to hop on the hash train and head to the metro
Atlanta area for a change of pace and a new hash venue. A great idea, but
unfortunately only three hashers showed up - Just Rob (aka Duff Man), Thunder Pony and
ReRun McNally - besides Ghost Rider and Tickle Mi Hare. Prior to the trail's
start there was a slight mishap. A neighborhood dog ran out in front of ReRun and
Thunder Pony on their final approach to Ghost Rider's pad and, well, it didn't take a CSI
crew to figure out what did the poor pooch in. Luckily the police have a very
up-to-date website, which provides free access to accident reports and photos - this is
why ChooChooH3's WebLoser was able to obtain a copy of one of the accident scene photos.
After the police left, Ghost Rider took all to the trail's start, a local park/tennis
courts. The blessing was provided by ReRun and with Ghost Rider off, the hashers had
10 minutes to enjoy some very tasty golden nectar and good conversation before heading out
(who said head?). The very first intersection proved confusing, but Just Rob managed
to persevere and find the way. Intersections were bountiful in the heavily-wooded
areas, and a double-intersection trail path lead hashers across a very large felled tree
over a close-to-sex-feet-deep gully.
A memorable occasion occurred in the woods on trail during this hash. During
this, the Chattanooga Hash House Harrier's 90th hash, ReRun officially and finally managed
to find his balls. It was a discovery 33 years in the making, credit for which goes
to "Bob And Friends," which was also found in the woods. Be sure to check Photos for proof.
Upon exiting the woods, the true-trail went past a neighborhood with houses advertised
as "From the $700's". "WOW" was the very true flower statement
laid outside, much to the likely annoyance of the local realtor. Down a two-lane
road all were lead, and then to and through the mammoth, and very well landscaped,
local high school. Even though it was a Saturday the campus was heavily populated,
which created a lot of buzz and shouts of "What are you doing?" Luckily
Ghost Rider laid trail past the gym, which allowed ReRun be able to snap a photo of the
girls' volleyball team (thanks, girls!).
Circle was quick due to the fact that pizza was waiting to be picked up at a nearby
restaruant, which was awesomely ordered by Tickle Mi Hare. For zero scouting, Ghost
Rider laid a fantastic trail for all to enjoy. Here's hoping the next traveling
ChooChooH3 hash is more populated.
The on-after was at Casa de Ghost Rider, where pizza and beer were enjoyed by all.
ChooChooH3 was very lucky to have a surprise guest, Optimus Prime. Apparently
all was quiet in the world of robots, as Optimus was able to take a break from his role of
protector and get down & boogie. Video is here.
The night before the hash was the Marine Corps Ball, which was attended by Ghost Rider,
Tickle Mi Hare, Five Gallon Douche and Tit Wringer, who was impressing everyone in his
tuxedo.
