especially Ron and Ed for providing the_much_needed shade and water and

jBot was on hand to give a couple of demos of navigation and obstacle
avoidance and I together with some kids got to chase it around the
parking lot for the general entertainment of the folks in attendance.
You can tell by the scores above that we are well on our way to a fleet
of outdoor hobby robots! An impressive showing by all concerned.
