A glorious red-orange dawn, and a persistent mist around the AO made for an awesome ruck-day full of good sights. Not a soul to be seen or heard except for birds. Glad to be up and after it outside in the early hours. The Gloom really is the best part of the day. Maybe that’s just the ruck talking… After a good arm-beatdown by Archive this Saturday, this Q realized he needed to put his noodle-arms through more than the typical workout. So he went with Archive’s unofficial motto: when in doubt, add weight.
