So the evening was looking to be another steamy wet hot moist slippery.... ahem... Where was I.

There he was, the hare, looking forelorn on the Amherst common... again. The hare was alone to be joined by two more hashers just gettin' tired of the constant rain. Whinging on about the liquid sunshine entertained us and NFN Heather arrived. More whinging until our very own lumpy hasher came with virgin in tow. About here was when we found out that the hare had cleverly waited until the rain had passed to lay a goodly length of trail... then... the rain came again... and all that effort, all that planning, all that hard work, the advance thought, the scouting, the (you get the idea)... washed down the drain. Beer was needed, needed soon. The curse of the pre-laid trail had struck again. With a pack of five, the weather whining continued until, the decision had to be made.

The choice was to give the hare the briefest of leads as he took off, to the south, I believe. A quick right with pack close behind, clearly seeing him, nearly catching him, almost smelling him. Bearing more right he nearly lost the pack but we preservered sensing the route. And even more right! We knew he was trying to shake us but, we could not be lost. And thus, almost as soon as it had begun, it was done. A fine trail, a grand trail, a complete circuit of a sizeable... oak, I recall, right in the center of Amherst common.

And as we all know, no trail can be TOO short and as long as there's beer, there's a hash. Beer and Wings where had a plenty at The Hangar, where the back sliding At Your Cervix graced us with an appearance.

So in sum, there were hashers, there was a... suggestion of a trail, but most important of all! There was beer, precious beer. A hash was had.
