Comments:

Even though the IARU contest is one of my favorites, I was only able to mount a
part-time effort.  Between lawn work, family social obligations, and pool
maintenance (read that as maintaining goodwill with the XYL for contesting in
the summertime), there just wasn't a great deal of time left for this one. 
But, hey, 12 hours of contesting is still better than a "poke in the eye with a
sharp stick," right?

My only complaint was that the local QRN level was unfortunately high during
the contest.  I had to adopt a "love/hate" relationship with the QRN.  The QRN
kept me from hearing as well as I would have liked, but at least there was rain
in the area, which we desperately need.  According to the rain guage on my Davis
WX-station we are 22.5 inches below average rainfall at this point in the year.

My thanks to everyone for all the QSOs and a special thank-you to those who
hung in there with me during the QRN.

73,

Rick
