The Trifecta Bust
I’m back at my day job after a big ol weekend of Bust. But it wasn’t a complete bust for me. Sure, Mike, Chris, Other Chris, and I went deep into the heart of Nebraska (and wound up somewhere on the northeastern side of bumble)…and Chris went even farther, flying up from Oklahoma City. But,…
