Howdy Don, Neil, Randy, Bill...

When I relocated to Omaha back in 2004, my first week there was CWS week. I never followed college baseball so I couldn't figure out why it was so hard finding a hotel room. Boy was I in for a surprise... And every night at the hotel was a giant party in the hallways... ugh.

Rob - I was lucky in that I was staying with family (my sister and now ex-brother in law) so I didn't need the hotel room, but getting around was atrocious otherwise. It was otherwise a good visit...

Well Neil, I was low on lead, and I didn't have time to go shopping for lead AND shooting lead too... I will just try again another day.

Good morning Steve, Drew, and the rest of my FTE buds, happy Friday! Gettting a late start this morning, had to drop the axles of the 67 off to get the bearings pressed off at the dealership.
