It was a blast this year.  This was the most time I have ever had to work 
this contest.  I had my son's soccer game on Saturday so I was gone for 
about 3 hours on Saturday.  I also met up with some old friends and 
chatted with them for a while.

40 meters was all over on Sunday.  I would be working stations and all of 
a sudden I would hear someone so close to me and would loose the other 
station.  If almost sounded like someone was trying to take the freq 
without asking if it was in use.  Come to find out the station was calling 
for over 10 minutes and could not get anyone to answer, then bang, there 
was everyone.  This happened many times through out the day.

Even though the conditions were not very good, I did have fun!  I REALLY 
wanted to do some CW but my keyer was down.  I did manage a few doing it 
an alternate way...  Next year I WILL be on CW at least 50% of the time...

Have fun all!!!
