I'm back from my first competition. I 've a nasty bruise on my collar bone from a knotty caber. I've got ice on it now. I don't know if my wife got any pics worth showing. She didn't leave the shade. Oh yeah, it was around 97 degrees today.

Now that I've got my first one under my belt, I've got some goals to shoot for. And I don't care who you are 56lbs is HEAVY!
