And now to the end of the State Women's Pinball Championship; I forget what the correct name for the event was, but these are my last pictures of it. Enjoy, please.

More photographs among the champions there.

And I took a picture of what the streaming camera saw as the rig was being taken apart. If you were to look in the right spot you should, logic tells us, be able to see me taking this picture but you won't be able to spot it.

AJH and PH and RLM and another guy (you know who if you've been following these pictures closely!) after the tournament agreeing that, somehow, everything went well and there were no significant disasters, that's fantastic. Which is is, absolutely.

Competitors and onlookers packing up for the long drive home.

That's not to say none of them are suspicious of me.

And here, pinball gets turned off for the night and the successful conclusion of everything.
Trivia: Half of India's 1986 wheat harvest of 47 million tons was set aside as a reserve. When the monsoon failed in 1987, producing the worst drought of the century, India was able to feed itself without loss of life or outside aid. Source: An Edible History of Humanity, Tom Standage.
