Gambling Hans

·         This guy named Hans has such a gambling problem that they call him GamblingHans. 

·         One day the Lord and Saint Peter show up, and even though he gambles away the money they give him to buy food with, they decide to reward Hans for his hospitality with three wishes. 

·         He wishes for a deck of cards, dice that always win, and a tree that would keep whoever climbed up it captive until Hans said they could leave.

·         Hans starts to win everything in sight, which concerns the Lord, so he sends Death to get Hans. Hans tricks Death into climbing the tree and keeps him there for seven years, during which no one dies. 

·         That's one big wrench thrown into things, so God orders Hans to release Death, who kills Hans on the spot.

·         They refuse Hans access to heaven, and in hell, he starts gambling and wins enough devils that he decides to fight his way to heaven. 

·         They let him in, but his gambling causes such a ruckus that they kick him out again—with sufficient force to splinter his soul. 

·         Fragments of his soul flew into people who we characterize as having a gambling problem, so parts of him are still alive today.

·         Oh so that explains Uncle Marv.

The road was getting busier so we were glad this one was quick.

Heading up Caribou Rd with geoguru1, escaping the heat and finding caches along the way. Having tired of all the dirt climbs for today, we circled back to pick up this one, Pretty easy to spot. sl thanks

Making a caching trip with Robespierre50 into the hills above Nederland to escape the heat. Sort of worked. Just 80s instead of high 90s. Missed this one on the way up. Easier. SL

We thought we saw what it probably was, and we were right. It was a little harder to get to vent to see.
