10 birds of the same F3 feather (including an FNG) gathered in the gloom in hopes of no rain and were pleasantly rewarded with a cool muggy morning. Enjoy them while they last I keep hearing.
One FNG arrived ready to see what F3 was all about and escape the emotional headlock of your Qs for the day. Mumbled through the welcome and disclaimer and got into it.
