Many Drafters preemptively rode the Back Door to Church on Sunday, sensing the holy water would fall from the heavenly skies today.  Their forecast of the forecast was devine.Queenie didn't make it to Church, but did pay his penance for missing Black Hill last week. Better late than never.Duchess sampled some holy water. How is it that Duchess appears drenched while   Sandlot barely looks winded?The flood gates have opened, so we will reschedule Back Door to Church for next Monday.  Plan to leave in shifts starting at 4:30, 4:45 and 5PM from Glacier Ridge Road.  It is a helluva route, so plan for at least 2.5 hours. Pizza and beers to follow. Some hydrations choices are difficult. Pray that I make the right one.Happy 40th BD to Cannibal tomorrow.
