Rangers, and All

Life has it's ways of pushing you to paths.
Life had pushed me to a path of loss and struggle. That path has lead me to rebuilding and growth.

I return, though know not those who might remember me. To this forum I apologize for disappearing with no word. I had no intentions of being away so long, or remaining unheard from. As I said, life has it's ways.

I have missed this forum, it's people and endeavors, dearly. If you'll have me, I'm now back at a point where I might enjoy this company once more.

I'm happy to see the peoples of this site still at it, and that this community is still growing!

It’s really good to see you around these parts again! I’ve had a number of absences, both long and short, but it’s always good to find my way back again eventually - glad to see you did as well!

It's only seven years right? But seriously, welcome back.

The math shocked me after I came to the realization. It's been too long. Not so much "problems" as much a complete 180 in life. However, here we are :D

Thank you all!

I like to think of the forum as a roadside inn. Some people live nearby and the inn is their regular watering hole. Some people are frequent travelers as they stop in every few months or so as they make their way up and down the road. Some people just come in once as they travel onward toward their final destination. It takes all types to make the inn feel like home. Whenever you come back, the fire feels a little warmer and the conversation becomes a little more lively. But the inn will always be there welcoming you back. We’re glad you’ve returned.

Wonderful to meet you, Eothain! A little off topic, but I went to middle school in Glenwood Iowa...how long have you been around there?

Barandir, well met!
Funny thing, I actually just bought a house there. So we moved there just this month. Originally from Missouri though, and have moved around quite a bit in the last few years. What a coincidence!
