Yes Jan, the Florida QSO Party has only been going for about five years,
but is already third (I think) in activity - after TX and CA.  For the 
past four years,
K4PG and I have done a 750 mile drive through 21 counties.  But I was in 
a motorcycle accident last week and got banged up pretty good!  Didn't 
feel like I could sit in the truck for all those hours, so did this one 
from home.
