remember the Tullahoma NPAC! This was the best run large <BR>>>>
contest I ever attended. (I attended several Nats, the last in 1978
<BR>>>> along with a few other contest along the way!) Mike had
strict rules <BR>>>> at Tullahoma and they were enforced to the tee.
This caused the <BR>>>> event to operate in a spectacular fashion.
This was the first time I <BR>>>> met Maureen and Mike Dunphy and my
hats still off to them and the <BR>>>> other officials. What a grand
time! We really should do NPAC again!<BR>>>><BR>>>> This was
my first year back in pattern after a seven year hiatus <BR>>>> drag
racing. Dorothy was indeed the star of the barbecue! BTW, I may
<BR>>>> hold a record with Dorothy as I received three tens in a row
from <BR>>>> her at the seventy-eight Nats! She is still one of the
best judges I <BR>>>> ever had the pleasure to fly for. (I seldom
received tens, most <BR>>>> times nothing close, but she was fair to
all no matter how long the <BR>>>>
day!)<BR>>>><BR>>>> Jack Daniel's Hollow is located in a dry
county here in Tennessee, <BR>>>> but due to some political
shenanigans or something of the sort, <BR>>>> Someone, (I blame it on
Mike), Jack was allowed to attend this <BR>>>> outing! Needless to
say, a great time was had by all! If you have <BR>>>> the opportunity
to tour Jack Daniel's Hollow, do not take a deep <BR>>>> whiff of the
vat when the guide ask you to!<BR>>>><BR>>>> While
reminiscing I would be remiss if I didn't say Ron Van Putte <BR>>>>
may not be my inspiration but has been my idol and friend for more
