Saturday:   The band opened to Texas mid afternoon with very spotty and 
overall
weak  signals for about two hours.  As the sun was going down the band  
shifted
to the northwest with weak signals.  The highlight was KL7NO  calling in 
with a
good signal from BP54.  About 110 contacts in the  log.

Sunday:  The band opened to the northwest around noon time. The  opening 
came on
suddenly with a couple VE6's and then to the west with tons  of stations 
from VE7
down into CN85 (Portland area).  I think I worked  every station in Seattle
(CN87).  KL7NO called in again to say hi but  was much weaker than 
Saturday. 
Nothing to the east at all on Sunday.   This opening only lasted a couple
hours.

No double hops this year and  generally weak signals from very small Es 
clouds.
