Reintroduction From Hiatus Various Reasons

It’s been over 4 years since I posted on the site.   Been having health problems but things are beginning to look up some.  Diagnosed with cancer, been through chemo, had 3 surgeries, plus knee replacement, ankle rebuild and two hernias.  The cures seem to be working and feeling much better.  This is not to invite sympathy because there are many worse off than me.  Just reasons I have not been on the site with all the folks I love and respect for all your talents and friendships.  Forgive me for my ramblings.

I'm coming along behind you Jack. This getting older isn't for wimps. I had seen your name here, so knew at one time you were regular. Glad to see medical is working, glad to have you back. 
Many thanks for the welcome back George.  I have really missed all of the great people and friends.  I have made a few things in my spare time but looking forward to getting started again.  Thank you George.

Jack it takes alot to reach out and share personal stuff like you have. You doing so makes me think about life and what's important. Knowing our priorities and enjoying the journey as much as we can makes it all worth while. Thanks for sharing. I look forward to seeing your posts. Cheers - MrRick

Glad you’re back! Lots of change around here since when you were last posting, but all good things. Hopefully you stay on mend and get some solid shop time! Looking forward to your project posts! Everything I’ve seen of yours so far is awesome!

Ryan/// ~sigh~ I blew up another bowl. Moke told me "I made the inside bigger than the outside".

I truly and sincerely appreciate all of your kind words.  People who don’t know the love and satisfaction we get from what we do and the kindred spirit shared between all here are missing out.   I know I sound like a sentimental old fool but I am, I was 80 the 9th.  Onward and upward guys.
