Yep, 3 days away. Thanks for asking. I feel real good. My wife tells me I look about the best I ever did. I normally drink 1 to 1 1/2 gallons of water a day but this time I drank 2 1/2 a day which I think may have something to do with it. I am getting anxious, excited and nervous all at the same time. lol

ALWAYS glad to have support from my WOTW freinds. Thanks!!
Mrbig7- It is an NANBF Natural show in Michigan. It goes by height class instead of weight. I'll be in the shorties class.
GerryT- I'll try to remember all the details after my 4 hour drive back home.
I am courious to see how they handle the drug testing. I have seen how poorly it is handled in some other organizations and I personally beleive most of them don't even send the samples in for testing.

Ok guys the show was last night and it was a really great show. Not the biggest but the athelets were conditioned very well. The judging was fair and the drug testing was handled in a professional manner. I was looking pretty sharp and so did the competition in my height class. By talking to them I found out that they were around 180 pounds where I normally come in as a bantam wt. I feel that I may have been overlooked due to the size difference. I tried a new tan also which did not help I looked a little too light. Lesson learned. I took 3rd in the open short class (5'5" and under) and 4th in the sub-masters 35-44.

Thanks for posting a pic, Carl! Looks like you pack a good amount of muscle, especially for 135lbs!!! Nice traps, delts & thigh sweep. Was that the last show of the summer?
