Hey All! From 2012 to 2016, I was a very, very active member in this forum. I regularly created threads, replied, posted CRH finds, auction results, etc. I sold a lot of stuff in the For Sale section and bought as well. I posted my "wish list" and many great members in this forum helped me fill so many holes in my collection. However, in 2016, my life was hit some obstacles and unfortunately, this had to be set aside as I was dealing with relocation, new job, transitioning my family to a new community and new schools, etc. It's been a rough five years but things have finally settled down. I am still in good old Indiana (now in Bloomington! Go IU!) and have recently gotten back into my much-loved coin hobby. Recently I have been getting rolls of coins at the bank and doing some good old-fashioned CRH. Can't promise that I'll be as active on here as I was before but I am certainly glad to be back. Now, I just wonder if some of my old buddies are still around. Regardless if they are or not, I'll be glad to meet some new buddies. Hope all is well here on CoinTalk! If anybody remembers me, would be glad to hear from you.
Sounds like life got in the way. It does for us all, but glad you are carving out a bit of time for yourself.
Welcome back! Although, I can’t really say I’ve noticed you were gone because I haven’t been on much over the last 6 years either. In April 2016 I started an account on Instagram dedicated to coins and I’ve slowly gravitated to a different coin forum and the vast majority of my online cointime is spent in those two venues. I definitely recognize your name though! It’s nice to log on every now and then and see some names pop up from my early days on the forum here.
From one Hoosier to another, welcome back! I certainly recognize the name and glad you are now able to hopefully contribute some more!
You were a little before my time, but welcome home. I hope you have the time now to involve your children in your hobby. I'm looking forward to your posts.
