Great contest with very good conditions except for QRN on 40 and 80
due to the big storm in the Midwest and East.  I was surprised I did
not work more DX, but nice opening on 10 Saturday evening.

Managed to work 47 of our glorious 50 states (missed NV, ND and HI).

Took numerous short breaks and one long one which were used for 
(1) running the snow blower up and down the driveway three times 
(2) eating (3) sleeping and (4) salting and breaking up the skating rink 
which was my driveway before Saturday's storm.
