Greg, I for one consider it pretty special to have a burger (okay, two) cooked by you! It puts a new face on the guy whose robots kick our butts. )

One thing that people on our team noticed was the amount of community involvement that was evident in Mountain Home. A couple of examples:

1. Businesses had signs up welcoming competitors to the Baxter Ozark Mountain Brawl. It was a nice touch, something that I haven't seen much of elsewhere.

2. We were eating breakfast at a restaurant (we bailed on the Holiday Inn because the waitress was a grouch), and almost everybody in the place asked us why we were there (our uniforms clued them in that we were there for SOMETHING), and when we explained, nearly all of them knew who the Bomb Squad was! One guy acted like a proud booster of the local football team: 'you'll have a tough time beating them!'
