I did Kids' Day with Camille, who just turned 12, she is getting to
be quite a pro now.   We didn't make that many Qs, but we had some
quality ones, chatting with kids about school, pets, music etc.  It
sure is hard to understand some of them when you're used to hearing
just old guys on SSB - did the 9-yo op have 26 kittens, pigeons or
chickens?

One of Camille's CQs was answered by KH0AC, we had quite a long chat
with him about his QTH in Saipan - quite a thrill for Camille, hard
as it is to impress kids with such things these days.

Thanks to all for the QSOs - Kids' Day is wonderful!   I hadn't used
the mic since October except for VU4, but Kids' Day is a reason not
to throw your mic away -
