As I start this message I see that the last time I visited here was 2-24-2011. I am amazed that it has been so long, but it was a very full year for us. Lynn was diagnosed with breast cancer in November 2010. After 2 surgeries and a year of treatments we seem to be back to normal. Every time I poked around in my coolador I thought of you guys as I came across gifts and trades that dated back to 2006. You have always been in my heart. I hope all is well and I also hope there are some familiar faces still hanging around.

I wondered from time to time where you got to. I don't notice too much change here. Glad to hear everything is going well there.

Every time I see the "What are you reading" thread I think about you. Glad to see you are still hanging in there. Hopefully Lynn is in recovery mode and doing well.

I'm in the same boat, gone for about a year but glad to be back! I felt the same way every time I would pull a stick out that I received in a pass or trade. Welcome back!

Socal isn't in the budget this year, but next year I will be eligible for a little help from Uncle Sam :-) Might be a road trip in my future. Saving our pennies to go north and see the new grandbaby in August.
