Geez man, when you hit a spot, you HIT a spot! Congrats on having the gear and the eye to make it happen!

Way to go Dave. GOIO told me you were working the area where I found my barber. I was sure there was some more stuff there but after the day we had had I wasnt hearing much but noise by that time. LOL. I am in town this weekend so give me a call and let me know what the plan is for Friday. TMAN...
