Challenge and 30m DXCC Awarded

The long awaited time has arrived.  It seems like a marathon and feeling like I crossed a tape across a finish line.  It really is more of a milestone.  It is ironic and apropos at the same time that I got all three - 5 band DXCC plaque arriving, and Challenge, plus 30m DXCC all on the 5th year anniversary week of my first ever QSOs on HF.
