Congratulations.  That's a great score.  I expect you wouldn't have done so 
well if you hadn't been having fun doing it.

Mike,

Sorry I didn't cross paths with you, or anyone else from the list.   As
usual, my CW phobia had me   just tinkering around for the first half of
the weekend, but  Saturday night, with about 65 in the log,  I figured I
would hit it a little harder.

Working around my church schedule on Sunday, I managed to log 505
contacts, 337 mults, and a score just over 463K.    For me this was a
big outing.  I do think my CW contesting skills are (slowly) improving.

Hope you had fun.  As hard as it is for me to get started in one of
these, once I get  into it, I really enjoy it.

73, Steve KW3A
