This is just a rough first cut... I'll keep chewing on it as I have incentive. I'm also going to need help positively identifying people and events... please send me email with that information so I can fix the page. It's also going to take me a little while to get all the photos in the right order, or at least associated with each other properly.

mvc-028f.jpg (53690 bytes) Yep, we have a winner. Todd Mullen's LOC Warlok landed on the sod farm's irrigation equipment. He was able to get the rocket down by unlinking the shock cord.
