I do miss Old Guy.  Such a wealth of HFE knowledge. :)

As for why he's not on very often anymore, I remember one of his posts.  He said that he wouldn't have ready access to the internet anymore so he wouldn't be on as often.

Docspeleo (and his alter ego) are out there on Facebook, as well as in the park.

I ran in to OLD GUY at the park.  Him and his wife are working at the Dulcimer.  They were working on Saturday.  I stopped buy and had a nice talk.

I wish I had known that before our trip last week, but it is good to know for the future.

I was kind of wondering what happened to Themeparkguy.  He has been active recently but no posts for a couple of months.

Hey OklaSDCfan...can you give us more details about what you and Old Guy talked about? How long will he and his wife be on park and are they becoming permanent "citizens" again...I sure hope so!  Is he "wired" again so he can participate on SDC Fans again?  He and I worked together and it would be great to connect with him again!

He and his wife have moved back into the area.  I think they are working for the dulcimer shop and not the park.  I do know that on Sundays they are working at the Dulcimer shop on the strip in Branson.

Great! I have not heard him play in years...it's been so long that I never have heard the two of them perform. He was single when I last saw him. I still have his first two albums "Fragments" and "Regina." I love them because as backing musicians and singers there are several people that I worked with on park. Problem is, they are both 33 1/3 format. My record player is out of commission, and I need to get a new one!

Hey, I appreciate the shout out.  This should probably go under the Professions thread (that I just noticed) but work keeps me pretty busy and I do like to lurk more and more....it's tons more fun sometimes!  It's like a full time job keeping pace with the new threads and conversation on here.
