THE THANG: Rambler announced he had no gloves – once he located Doodles cashmere isotoners the workout could resume. Rotated through a series of exercises with each pax calling 10 reps.

COT: I will leave you with this link – the Autreys are my ancestors and they appreciated a good breezeway https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autrey_House
