It was Dave's birthday, so Sarge surprised him with a cake.
Me, Sarge, Mike (owner of Jeremiah's BBQ) and Randy (owner of Tarcisio's) These guys fed us massive amounts of food while we were there in Sequim! Thanks alot guys! Always good to eat at your places!

So, I had a massive brain fart...I thought this was the actual finish line. I had a really good time, and felt like it would be a top 2 finish. Then, everyone started yelling at me to cross the finish line. There was an another orange painted line 8 feet farther than this one. DUH HIGA!
Here I am trying to explain to Breck what stupid mistake I made in the Yoke.
Dave Ostlund vs Karl Gillingham.

Big thanks to Sarge & Kevin Kennedy for putting on a great show!
This car was parked near mine.
Thanks again to "SARGE" for putting on a great contest in Sequim. We were put up in a great hotel, and got fed lots of good meals from the local businesses.
I always have a great time participating in this festival, and the locals just love seeing the Strongman competition.
I placed 4th overall. Dave Ostlund of Minnesotta, won the contest.
Mahalo,
Grant Higa Bulky Boy strongman team
