Greetings everyone!

Like the Phoenix I may crash & burn from time to time, but I rise from the ashes (much to the chagrin of some!)

Thank you all for the kind thoughts & well wishes during my enforced absence. My back isn't 100% (yet), still going through phys therapy, and I recently had to spend the night in the hospital (I had a bout of diverticulosis), but I'm getting well enough to return to XMTS!

I've got a lot of catching up to do, so you may not see many posts from me right away, but I look forward to contributing once again.

p.s. -- heard from Matt recently about my upcoming box pleat kilt. I'm 3rd on his to do list (oh the jones!!!).

Cheers!
