Thats how we do it to but we will normally not walk side by side cause my friend has a habit of jumping in front of me. We will split but stay in sight of each other.
Ben and I have a pretty good system and we wait for each other if flipping something over. Definitely been great to catch up with Ben he has helped me out a lot. We connected through this site and after a few PM's we realized who each other was. We went to grade school through high school together and grew up up 5 miles away from each other.... Small world!!!
