Hey Merv,
i'm still amazed at how you pulled off those bullets with an A rig on saturday in gusts to 25mph. Even the B riggers were sailing under. thanks for making the trip. will we see you at the orlando?

I thought Dr. Bob was going to take pictures.

I happened to bring my camera and I and my wife, Doris took some pictures of the event. I know it doesn't include everyone because I thought Bob was taking the pictures. So here is what I have;

Hey Tony,
I don't know how I survived Sat in that wind. I was praying the whole time that my rig would stand up and it did somehow. I'm for sure getting my B-Rig put together now. Not sure if I'll be in Orlando yet.
