    Hello Alll

    So I have been getting quite a few e-mail notifications lately from some rather archaic posts here, which can only mean SPAM! Sorry to see so much garbage happening here.
    Anyway, thought I would drop by and say "Hello". Hope everyone here is well

    Good to see you again. Drop in a little more often...this annual flyby is a little old.

    LMAO Mike. Yea I realize I don't get around here much. my interests have changed dramatically over the last few years but I like to keep in touch with friends.
    Actually I have an ulterior motive for this thread, but we can get to that later. Glad to see a lot of the old names still around.

    Sylvander,
    Isn't his ulterior motive as intriguingly interesting as how interests have changed?

    Actually I have an ulterior motive for this thread, but we can get to that later.
    Ok Frank,
    It's later already! C'Mon! Fess up!!!

    Ok, so heres the deal. My oldest son has just told me he would like to take the summer off and backpack/couch surf. Starting in the southern states, probably heading nor'east, and possibly crossing the pond. We started discussing routes and possible contacts. I remembered the mention of "open door" invite amongst members here and thought I would throw it out there.
    What say ye? Anyone interested in hosting a 19 year old lad on adventure? I think he is willing to lend a hand with chores for a meal and a nights stay.

    Hi Bassman Just thinking about ya. Haven't been around much myself. Moved back to Israel in January. Don't have a place of my own I'm staying with a friend but if he's game and wants to cross a couple ponds I think something can be figured out.
