The Backbone of Bushido JJA

I posted this picture already but I think some people need some appreciation. I canceled the cookout because no one seemed interested in my efforts to put it together, however @thechardie convinced me to have it anyway because he was excited about the team getting together. He was followed by @darion.odin.sommons and @tharpiee and others from our Burlington dojo. They pulled it together somehow and it turned out to be a great event. Thanks to @tharpiee @mommabear_22_19_10 and @fitpastor777 for kicking the food and helping out, and to everyone who bought food and came to the event, but mostly to @thechardie for lifting my spirits and staying positive about the whole thing. You need to understand that we're not individuals... We are a team and more importantly, a family. Other our training regimen, which is emulated by many, has helped me develop some of the best Judoka in North Carolina... The concept of dojo, team and family is what has helped keep Bushido together for 30 years.
