           At 0515 hours it is still O-Dark-Thirty. We had a nice 8-unit convoy out of the old IGA parking lot in eastern Purcellville at 0520 hours local. Tom - WB3AKD was unit 8 who joined as we moved by Round Hill. Gary Quinn - NC4S was point and Tom - WB9RXJ was trail.  We were some of the first units there and they were upon us as we parked under the tall trees in the eastern end of the Clarke County Fair Grounds. It didn't take long to part with the good stuff. Gary - NC4S and Tom - NA4MA cleared everything by 1030 hours. If you need a nice radio then this is the place to shop around.

           There were many - like at least twenty-six - Loudoun Amateur Radio Group current and past members who stopped by to say hello and chat:

           The Loudoun Radio Row had some nice stuff that went for some reasonable prices. Again this year, we heard some of our members being called to pick up their door prizes; we hope they were still around. We might think about pooling tickets as folks depart early.  Most folks pulled out by noon. We were home on Canby by 1330 hours. It was nice riding with you all.
