[NSRCA-discussion] Houston, SE Texas and SW Louisiana Competitors

Hi Don,

I'm glad to hear that you are still "in business", though cleanup is going to take a while for most of us.  I'm going to stay here this weekend and help clean up the field so that we can proceed with our contest as scheduled.

See ya then!
