Additional information or comments: Dustin Draper has asked us to come out to help cheer up his friend Tim Rowe. Tim was the 5'2" Wolverine at PCC this past year. Anyways he is going through chemo therapy there now and while he is 42, he is a kid at heart.

Dustin has cleared it with the hospital for us to come out and also visit the pediatric area. Weapons are possible, but we must be prepared to leave them behind, especially props that appear to firearms.

Wish I could be there.

Sadly I am working that day.

Hospital and orphanage troops are perhaps two of the most emotional and impacting experiences one can make in this hobby. I commend and encourage the Obsidian Spire and all trooping therewith on this mission. For hospital visits, buckets (helmets / masks) and even hoods-up are a definite plus; they can't see ya git watery-eyed.

My Brutal respect to y'all.
