Five words: Twenty was terrible on Sunday.  Had a blast using the
computer and TR for
keying (no paddles at all).  It took a while to get used to typing
instead of sending,
but made it a heck of a lot easier for me.  Saturday was pretty good,
with 231
Q's and no really dead times.  Sunday was a different story.  1600 -
1959 netted 16 Q's.
I have to admit that at one point I turned on the computer in the family
room and
played Descent.  Even took the XYL to lunch at Steak-n-Shake.  All in
all, had
a good time.  Worked a lot of the FCG guys.
Missed eight states (ID, ME, NM, SC, VT, WY, HI, AK).
