I had been active on here for a while and then not for a while, I logged in today and it’s like a ghost town! Is everyone just active on Facebook instead? This was always the best place to network and ask questions...

Naw, naw, we're mostly here. We are just not as vocal as we used to be. We are a much more close group now-a-days.

Yup, we are here! Look at Facebook, but still enjoy coming here to see if anything is going what is going on.

I always thought this was the best place to learn and share.... I remember when there was even the Sign of the Month contest, (which I won once)...

I am still here. I am semi-retired. Mostly doing laser engraving on wood or plastic, and ready to apply lettering for 3of my customers. I haven’t made a carved sign in over a year.

I'm back. Last week, I finished two weeks backpacking 103 miles on the Appalachian Trail with a couple friends. Grandpa survived the hike and the winter storms we encountered in the process.
I gear tested a rain shell while on the hike and got plenty of precipitation and wind to give it a good workout. I'll be writing a column for SectionHiker.com on the shell in the next few weeks. I wrote a column for them in June on "Backpacking with Children: Lessons Learned".
I'm still working... but not as hard as I used to. I'll be spending more time on volunteer projects in the years to come.

I am fully retired now but still dabble in the craft every now and then. HELLLOOOOOOOO from the bottom of the well.

I seem to arrive here every day, but comment far less. Kinda like showing up at a pot luck and not bringing anything to share. We just took a year off to build a house for my mother in law, and learned that building is a young mans game.

I get it, we’re all getting older and this was the place to be, before the evil blue f came along, except here had more veteran sign guys and less beginners. Even “The Letterheads” site seams like a ghost town. Sad, as these were my favorite places to learn, share and make new friends.

Still here. Barely have time for anything lately. The Bosswife even said it doesn't even feel like Christmas with all the work we have right now. Miss the days of the good old International Meets.

Haven't been here for quite awhile and it is so nice to see so many of the faithful faces. Don't know if anyone remembers me. I was actually thinking the same thing....there used to be more posting. Am not worried. They'll be back in 2020.
Hey, thanks Barb...still have my member # and pic. Those glasses are coming back...I think?
I have been retired...but as we all know, we never really retire. We do signs for FREE when we all retire, don't we?

I shut down my shop in August and moved to Texas. I'm getting ready to build a new, much smaller shop to have a place to make a few signs and get back to some woodworking.
