Got back from Phoenix later than expected with a ton of work to greet me or
I would have had this up sooner. Packages went out to the winners this
morning:
Judy Baggs
Bryan Thomas
Keith Cook
Rick Gallego
Adam Waltemire
(and yes, that's the order they came out of the ski cap)
Apologies to those whose names didn't come out sooner. I'll do something
like this again soon.
cheers
bill
