It always amazes me how fast a nice run frequency turns into crud at the
beginning of SS.  Never fails!

Was a good SS this year with a good amount of participation and favorable
propagation.  Yeah 10 meters  WOO HOO!!!!

I was 170 Q's behind last year at my nightime off period from last year and I
knew I had my work cut out for me the second day!  I hammered away all day and
watched myself gain ground only to give some back later.  It was a real
challenge for me and seemed to keep me going through the dulldrums of SS
Sunday.  I even found myself entertained with the football games all day which
helped as well.  Through it all, I ended up 10 Q's shy of last year which I was
pretty darn happy about.  Maybe one less bathroom break would have made the
difference but what the heck, it just seemed like the trip there and back was
worth it!!

One of these days, I am gonna figure out K6LL's formula.  As of yet, I am still
in search of the right stuff.  Congrats to Dave and the 2000 club!
