Hey Josh, I see you found the web site. Hapy is one of the guys I was saying is coming to the Kittery area at the end of the month. You are in good hands now. I got to go down and throw with Don Stewart last week and I picked up a lot. Best of all was a few feet on my weight for distance. Throwing is the best way to learn. See you soon, and I will send the application today, or you can download it from http://www.mainehighlandgames.org - www.mainehighlandgames.org . Leroy ------------- Leroy McDonough |

Hey Josh, Welcome. Where in NH are you? I'm in York, ME. Grew up in the Lake Sunapee area and still visit there frequently. Drop a note and see if we can include you in a training or games session. Al ------------- Dyin' ain't much of a living, boy. - Outlaw Josey Wales |
