Comments:

Last year I said how much fun this contest is.  Not this year....just one long
slog (and not that long either).

Had trouble staying away (well, actually, I didn't stay awake).

Terrible atmospheric noise first night until storm "passed" (NNJ was tornado
watch area!), then nobody heard me.  Went to bed.  Second night better
(locally), but nothing of any signal strength west of the Mississippi.  Heard
KH6 this morning at sunrise, but "no way" qrp.  Didn't even try.

Called CQ 2,175 times on day 2; some return rate.

Looking at my results last years, wow.  This year was a big disappointment.

Elecraft K2 and 1/2 wave wire with center at 50' and ends at six feet.

Stew better be better than this!
