    Paul, either one will work, but maybe do my home address since it will be in an AC building rather then in and out. My address in my profile is my home one. I like the idea of meeting up at Shelley's to wrap things up. I'm ready, just send her on home to Bethesda!

    Good call on the re-direct. Also I went and bought a new pic card reader at lunch and will post my pics soon. I never did find that camera cord. I would like to blame it on my 3 yr. old but after a lengthy discussion last night it appears my wife had it last.... good thing I like her.

    Default The Eagle has landed

    Well, I picked up the package from Dickson yesterday, cut through a roll and a half of duct tape, dug through two Sunday papers worth of packing paper and retrieved the goods. I opened up the Tupperware and Ziploc baggie and placed them in my coolidor for the time being, as I won’t be able to get to it until tonight. I haven't thorough checked it but everything looks good thus far. Once I figure out my P/T's I'm hoping to enlist Maui to help me with the picture taking and posting. Then possibly wrap up this transcontinental voyage with him. Let me ponder my P/T's and consult the elders. High five to all who have participated so far.

    Default Circle is complete!

    So CJ and I got together tonight - had a couple sticks, couple burgers, couple beers. At the end of the night all I can say is that the pass is complete...

    Now the only things that we have to attend to are:

    1. I started with 14 sticks - we're ending with 27 sticks. Which means we're over by 13 sticks. As mentioned in the beginning, we're going to split the 13 between the two best photos (I had said before for landmark and "other" - but to make things easier - we'll do a vote (to be done in the not so distant future) on all the pics, including the ones from the disposable - and the photo with the highest vote gets 7, second highest vote gets 6.

    2. How do we know which 27 sticks Mauied? Great question - I'm sending two folks that have not participated in the pass requests - one my list of 27 sticks (sorted randomly) and another to arbitrarily pick 13 numbers - it's not scientific, but it works. The first 7 incremental numbers picked go to the highest vote count, the next 6 numbers go to the second highest vote count. Should have this wrapped up within the next 3-4 days, if not sooner.

    3. Will post the disposable pics when I can - then we'll just have to vote.

    This is at Saunders at Rye Harbor, in Rye NH. It's about 5 min. from my home and the restaurant where my wife and I worked in college and met. The cigars are tied to a lamp post on the Deck and the shot is of the harbor around 6 pm or so.

    Very, very cool pic. Looks like a relaxing place to light up, soak in the ocean breeze and enjoy the scenery!
