Welcome BAWS HAWG! The Newport event is always alot of fun...been there the past 6-7 years (not competing ...stopped that when we had the kids, but getting the itch again!). If you can share, what's the team name? I'll be sure to stop by.
And Another_Q_Lover is right. It's been slow here, but ready to pick it back up now that I hopfefully will have some more free time this winter.
Please feel free to 'make yourself at home'...the grill is always on :)
