103 TONS of trash. Somewhere between 400-500 people. We're still trying to tie down that number. Manfield group got 5 miles. Near as I can tell we got 10 1/2 miles on this end. So, that's 15 1/2 miles. The most distance ever. Mr. David Ainsworth personally and his crew are by far the Most Valuable Players of the Year. That man has got to be one of the best tractor operators alive. We would have been in a bad way without their trailers, front end loaders, expertise and gung ho attitudes. Kip definately earned Section Leader of the year. We picked up trash on our knees when we could no longer bend over, we ran along side trash trailers loading them in heavy cold hard winds and rain. My God this was an awesome event and that is due totally to the wonderful people who worked harder than anyone would for daily wages to get it done. Some one post up a pic of Trey Savage's truck with that trailer and it'll give a better idea of some small problems overcome. Ha. You have always been my heroes but this year I stand in utter awe of you all and the good you have done. Hooorraaaa. Your Brother in the Sand, Billy
