Well, a few of you know that it's been very hectic around my household for months now. Primarily we've been trying to sell our house to get a single level to help take care of my Mom who has a hard time with stairs. We found a place perfect for all the criteria, made an offer, came to an agreement and were beginning the normal processes of buying/selling of the homes. Then we had the place inspected. Found tons of things (many major cost items) needing repair/replacement. The current owner (in essence) wanted us to pay for the repairs...effectively allowing him to live there for the past couple years without cost. Man, talk about a cheap skate! Needless to say, I'm not into that so we backed out of the deal.

So the search continues. FYI: Part of the criteria was/is to find a place that I can finally put up a tower and get a beam back up in the air. The place had some elevation (almost at the top of a hill) and an awesome view. I had intended on installing a crank over tower and either a Signal Engineering Lightning 6 or 8 element quad around 60' to the boom. I still have plans for that dream, but finding affordable hilltop property out here tends to be short in the pickins'.

So I'm still here...just not posting as much as I'd like to. I visit many times per day though (if time permits). You guys won't get rid of me that easy.
