Days are getting longer so it's no longer pitch black when you drive to breakfast at Jerry Bob's.  Wonder where everybody is hanging out.  It's usually busy early in the AM but this morning it was pretty slow until we got ready to leave.  Must be the nice WX that's making Jerry Bob's less of a priority.  It was nice standing outside after and telling war stories though.

No Jerry Bob's today!  It was the RST DesertFest and it was held at the Golden Corral near 22nd and Colombus in the Golden Corral parking lot.  Thanks to the Golden Corral.  Very beautiful WX and it looks like it was a very successful event.  Hope we can do it there again!  To see the pictures, click on the DesertFest picture above!  You can see that KE7PMJ was in fine form for the spring hamfest!

It was a beautiful morning, even if the weather person says we're suppose to get wind today followed by rain tomorrow. As you can see, we had several new faces.  Nick, Tamara and Olga were guests of KB7USM - Ivan and XLY - Karen.  Note at the top of the page in the Silent Key section that we lost Clyde - K7IOU last week.  He will be missed.

Hey!  Something's changed, huh, Stan?

Here it is, March already!  It was a bit chilly as I came down the canyon, a crisp 26°.  I thought winter was over.  There were 15 for breakfast this morning.

How interesting!  I pick Tom's picture for the "Picture from the Past" last week, and he shows up for breakfast this morning.  I think we had 14 this morning.  The WX is gorgeous in Tucson for the end of Rodeo week!  Lets keep it up!

There weren't too many this morning.  Maybe they went to the ham fest in Yuma.   I think we had 12 this morning.  A bit of news:  Tomorrow, we will be putting a new repeater up at the U of A Radio Club since W9BOE - Emil was gracious enough to donate a Kenwood TKR-750 to replace "The Repeater from Hell" that was "sort of" in service for the last two or three years.  This should be a real improvement.

There were 17 this morning.  A few regulars were missing.  I guess they have better things to do on such beautiful mornings.  Some of the guys went to help AA7HX - Ted with his antenna installation after breakfast.  He's been working on his tower for quite a while.  Maybe this will be the final effort.  Oops!  I didn't take Adrienns's picture.  I'll take it twice the next time.

In other news, our very own W1KSZ - Richard was elected President of SADXA on Thursday evening. Speaking of, where has he been all year?

TOM CUSTER - W7ZBS (SK)
Click Picture for Memorial Page
This morning at Jerry Bob's, I received a call from Tom Custer's brother in Pennsylvania who informed me that W7ZBS had become a silent key yesterday.  He had tried to call Wednesday to tell me that Tom was very sick, but of course we weren't there.  We knew that Tom had been deterioriating over the last few months, but I had no idea that he hadn't been to breakfast since 26 Septemter 2009.  Where does the time go?  Tom stopped coming to the Wednesday Village Inn lunch because he had parking problems at the Speedway & Columbus site.  Tom, we are going to miss you.  W7ZBS (SK) may he rest in peace.

There were 16 at breakfast this morning, including the long lost K7IOU - Dave!

What a beautiful morning!  Kind of cool, but by the time I arrived home it was up to 57.  Not bad for January.  There was a pretty large group, 20, there with a face from the past showing up, KC2FMH - Larry with his Indiana Jones hat,  He's been here for a couple of months but hasn't been to breakfast until today.
