Thanks to EVERYONE for a successful Field Day.  It exceeded my expectations on fun, and tear-down was accomplished perhaps in record time.  

These special thanks come quickly to mind:

Jeff W3JSE for his extreme service in shopping and cooking the food
Bill N3WM for supporting shopping for food supplies
Steve N3ESE for supplying the CW station
John W3JJH for supplying the alternative power station
John K3KWO for supplying the digital station with rig & shelter
Pat N8PK for arranging crab soup being added to our menu, and providing our only youth participant who deserves much praise for operating with us
Tony AF3AK for extensive logistics support behind the scenes
Andy WO3L for tower climbing and networking of phone, and FD leadership
Gene KB3JHR for arranging PC logistics and CT installation
William KB3GHE for leading antenna installation for CW + enthusiastic phone operating
Pete W3GVX for precision launching of our CW antenna and providing needed support to digital operations

(all of this is great under statement of your contributions!)
Do provide any constructive feedback of FD to Andy and myself.  (I can imagine we easily want to add VHF/UHF, an additional CW station, and even more participants to our list).  

This is my assessment of what we earned in bonus points:
