The results are in!

We had a fantastic albeit quick weekend in Seattle.
Drove 1100 miles round trip and our personal best shows no sign of wear and tear!
Of 19 participants at the Central Market Weigh Off, ranging from 92lbs to 1058lbs, we placed 16th with our 406lb-er. No shame here. It was all I'd hoped for with the friendliest folks you could imagine. I took lots of notes on how to improve our weigh off next year and look forward to any thoughts or ideas from you folks.

Considerations like: An Organic Class, A Novice Class (1st time competing), A Youth Class, to name a few.
As a result of the article in the Ravalli Republic, several people have been sending me their SASBPs (self addressed, stamped(2 stamps), small bubble pack or padded envelope). Keep them coming - I will fill every request with several Atlantic Giant seeds.
