That is great. You had a nice place to hunt. Go back again if you can. I don,t think you got it all. You have some real nice keepers and a good count to beat.

The City overhauled the sidewalks in the town I lived in about 10 years ago. I was all excited before they started. My job required me to go to another part of the state for some training. When i got home I was sure impressed with the new sidewalks they had poured all along main street--I did not know they could clear, frame and pour that much sidewalk in such a short span of time. I just have to wait another 60 years and they will--I am sure do it again.

Camp out!!

Good job, Ron. That's using your head. Very opportunistic hunt.
