The following day, Opee left early to de-virginize (teach a new hasher how to lay trail) an enthusiastic fellow that lived in Zuid Oost (south east Amsterdam). Just Pjotr had planned out a potential trail, but Opee tossed those plans and instead helped him to lay a trail in an area that we hadn’t hashed in before.
After a brief start in his neighborhood, the very scenic trail soon headed off-road combining bushes...
…forest...
…rivers...
…and lakes.
I was thrilled that Strap Me Down and Lockdown Shag (his first non-virtual Amsterdam H3 Hash) were joining us for a quick stop before leaving for Germany.
They didn’t stick around for the circle, but at least enjoyed a great trail. It was emotional hugging Ashlynn goodbye knowing that she would be moving to Glasgow the following week and we couldn’t go along to help her get settled. Good to know that we didn’t need to worry as she’s proven herself to be independent and resourceful, but I was still sad not to be with her during such a big rite of passage.
We had the circle under this sculpture.
After several false promises to bring along a female friend to the hash, Just Pjotr was appropriately named Is She Cumming? Sadly, he has since found a girlfriend who isn’t interested in hashing, so we probably won’t be seeing much of him in the future.
