From Dave Hewlett:
News about Larry Wampler. He had a problem last weekend with bad pains in his leg. They did not know what it was. Yesterday they found a broken capillary in his esophagus that was allowing blood to be pumped into his stomach at each heart beat. He had surgery and is doing ok today.

Later News about Larry Wampler:
They have moved Larry to ICU in Greenville. They have given him 11 pints of blood so far. Rex talked with him this morning and Jackie G. went by to see him this afternoon. He has a leaking capillary in his stomach and they have to go in and patch it. That was the reason for so much blood loss.

The weekend is here.  There are not a lot of CCOs to attend, but if you get a chance, I hope you win.  We already have several people qualified on wins and with their points.  Good Luck to all of you cooking this weekend.  Have a safe and fun trip!
