New Amenities at Downtown Train
YHC went to dinner a few weeks ago at the new Mama Mia’s – dinner was great but even better was the realization that there was some new gym equipment sitting right there. Unspoiled, untamed, virgin, pristine, pure… To my knowledge, I hadn’t seen a backblast from anyone calling out the new dueling set of stairs, the large step-ups used for seating, the new full walls. This is pristine new property and technically under different ownership than the parking deck, etc… Let’s give it a go and see if any complaints come to pass. For now, let’s do some staid climbs, some earkins, derkins, dips, box jumps, let’s put balls to walls, and sit like a preacher… As I sat on my couch Sunday night thinking through my next morning. The purity of that scene crept in – “well let’s check the Q sheet.”, I thought. “Ha HA!”, I exclaimed scaring the M and the dog. Then I thought. Let’s do this!

Now that I’ve Q’d it – I’m looking forward to another go. Lot’s more to take advantage of in this new spot. Let’s hope it lasts!
