The Siege for 2008 has come and floated away!

The committee wishes to thank all who braved the weather to come to our little part of the world. It was truly a muddy weekend. We are not sure about everywhere else, but at least here on the McCraw farm the drought is over. To those who did not make it, the barn is still standing! Of course if Marilyn had been there it would not have rained. She would not have had time for it.We wish everyone a safe journey and we hope to see all of you next year for #15!

Thank You,
The Committee of Siege at Bridgeport 2008
