thanks for the nice comments. we have done the forum with totally free software and i cover all costs of maintaining the forum. i ask for nothing from anyone and will keep it that way. it is a labor of fun and friendship for us. yes there are quirks with the forum software and at times how it works. the search engine could be better i am sure. that said, it is the best we can make it for the least cost and effort.

there are no ads and i will keep it that way. just good ol information sharing and friendship. my wife darlene picked the saying friends helping friends when we started in 2012 and that has been the case for sure.

later
