To all: this isnt goodbye
« on: July 21, 2010, 01:27:48 PM »
Hello everyone!

Folks, I just wanted to say I am going to be off and on here for a bit and then I might be gone for awhile. I am making some personal moves in my life including heading for Siloam Springs, Arkansas in about a month, if not sooner. This is not goodbye because I will be back at some point to get right back into the thick of things. But for now, I will be hit and miss and then gone.
  You all have made this a wonderfully pleasant and fun experience and I have had a blast with my "top" lists and reading all of your posts. You have made me feel so welcome and I have appreciated the comments, personal messages and support. You have literally helped me find a smile in difficult times and I have loved seeing all of the pictures that helped propel me back to SDC.

As I said, I am not gone just yet, but I wanted to make sure I told you all how I felt in case I get backed up and could not. This is, by far and away, the best forum I have ever been on and I like this site better than FaceBook. Thanks ten tons, everyone!! To all of you!

Good luck with everything Andy and don't stay away too long.  We've got a pretty nice little family here and you'll always be part of it. 

Not to mention that you're like 15 minutes away from my house now!  (well, if I still lived in Gravette that is)   
You've Got A Great Past Just Ahead Of You!

Andy, if there's one thing I've learned over the years, its that things are ALWAYS better just around the bend. Take care and talk to you soon.
No matter where you go, there you are.
