Event: USA Corn Maze Champs, Classic, Sprint, and Relay
 

Alex asked me at some point, maybe last night, if I was stressed out as much as before the 5-Day, and I said I didn't think so. I guess the proof is in how I spent the day -- first an early round of golf, then getting the maps printed and doing some errands, then just enough time for a bike ride, and then off to the maze to hang controls. Obviously I had too much time on my hands.

The last item took longer than expected. I'd figured on 45 minutes to an hour, but it took an hour and ten minutes, mainly because I'd forgotten how much time it took to assemble the posts and flags and e-boxes. So didn't get done until 5:35, but first start was not until 6 pm, so everything cool.

Operations during the meet went pretty smoothly, though not made any easier by people forgetting their e-punches, or trading them seemingly willy-nilly. Thanks to George for his help in keeping everything straight.

Also a nice visit from Will and Mike. And thanks to many generous donations, I'll be able to stop by tomorrow and pass on $200. That, plus the smiles they had watching us, should make us very welcome in the future.

Quite an awesome evening, glad so many people could come. Maybe sometime we'll try it on a weekend, though that would require getting organized a little further in advance.

South Deerfield - Whately loop, working hard, probably because I didn't have much time but I wanted to do something.
