Lots of folks here in the Rochester NY area worked into MO/OK/AR/LA, 
which lines up nicely with the MN-SC paths.  I gave my father a call 
back in EN10rt and he managed a string of FN10 and FN20 QSO's. 
 Unfortunately, my IC-706 went DEAF on 2m this afternoon so I didn't get 
in on it.  Imagine that.  (TX works fine, but have about 40dB 
attenuation on 2m RX....grrrrr)  I tried on the FM radio, but couldn't 
find anyone on simplex.  It was nice to work K0AWU on 6m though :-)

Lets hope for a next time!
