Thanks to everyone here I feel like I'm ready to go! Thanks to all for posting questions and thoughts, this place is great...I will try to remember to get some pics and will post turn-in's and scores along with my thoughts on Sunday

My wife and I did our first comp a few weeks ago to get our feet wet. I wasn't nervous until D-DAY. Just relax, enjoy and do what you do best. You'll do great... and don't forget.....just have fun!

Um, I don't seem to have any missed calls or voicemails, could it be that I didn't get a call to help, or at least taste test? Just messin with ya, hope everything went well, but let me know if you do any more comps and need an extra set of hands sometime.

Good luck. 1st comp is an eye opener. I hope you took pencil and paper to write down the stuff you want to have for the comps and don't have. I did that for my first few comps and got and idea of what we needed.

Don't forget to let us know how you did. Good luck again.
