It’s been a long time and I thought I would drop in to say hello. Haven’t done any modeling in years but the interest is still there so maybe someday. I have been chatting a little with an old friend from this forum H3nav on Facebook messenger. It was nice to hear from one of my old friends from FSM. I hope everyone is doing well and you all are healthy and happy. We are still planning on moving to Jacksonville, NC in a couple of years but other than that most everything is about the same around here. Gardening/horticulture/botany has become my main hobby now but I still have a model sitting on the dusty bench. 
Hey, Mike. I’m glad you dropped in. I hope you dust off the bench and the model and get to building. I look forward to hearing about your adventures in modeling.
Hey Mike-it’s good to hear from you.
Think you will like NC-that’s where my wife & I would like to ‘ease’ into retirement in a few (?) years. That move will put you closer to your son, wouldn’t it? Always nice to be close to the kids.
I’ve hit one of those modeling ‘dry spells’ after moving to take a new job-hopefully I can find the motivation soon-still hanging here in the forums.
Take care and hang out here more often.
Whats up Mike? I’m glad to hear that you are alive and well.
Hi Mike! Glad all is well with you and yours. Stick around. Lots of new faces.

Thanks guys.
Yes Bob my son has a house in Jacksonville but right now and for the next two and a half years he will be a D.I at MCRD Parris Island, SC
Mike
Come on down, I’m up in the Cherry Point/Havelock area and a member of a small model club in New Bern, we’d be happy to have you
Thank You USMC6094. When I move there I will look you up. 
Well…considering I hit the half century mark this past Monday, I really can’t complain.
