Haha hey folks!
Sorry to go AWOL. Ridgerunner, I think/hope I already replied to your pm, but I'm just now seeing this.
Nov of last year is when a new business opportunity / career change that I've been wanting for a number of years started to turn into a reality. I resigned my previous job end of December, and launched my new business April 20. Collaboration Coffee in downtown Yakima.
Around that same time my wife and I started getting involved with the Central Washington Mountain Rescue team, so we've been doing trainings and classes for that in my "off" time.
It's been NUTS, as my fellow small business owners can attest, but I'm slowly but surely bringing my head out of the fog.
Sadly, I selected "points only" for all my tag apps this year, and I won't likely be on here very much in the next few months to a year. I will definitely sneak in a few day hunts at least, so hopefully I'll have some fun stories to share this fall.
Good luck everybody!
