Goodbye for now...

[fretlessman71]

We're finally making the move! I know I haven't been as active on the board as usual -- we've been planning and packing and organizing and all of this stuff trying to get all of OUR stuff to Colorado, and it's finally going to happen! So this post is probably the last one you'll see of mine for quite some time. When we complete our relocation and get internet access, I'll be back on to see how things are going. *sniff* I'm gonna miss you guys.... *SNERRF* Have fun voting without me! (Have fun passing me in the total posts, too.... :( )

P.S. Those of you who are still waiting for beer shipments from me have not been forgotten about! I've already integrated it into the packing process. Fear not!

[Stodbrew]

Good luck on the move, Fret! Hope everything goes smoothly and safely. We'll talk to you soon, no doubt!

Cheers!

Steve

[Beaver]

Good luck, Fret!

[Herb Ninja]

Like they said -/\- Good Luck on the move. Hope to see ya soon. Peace, HN-

[steveh]

Good luck buddy - catch ya on Mountain Time! Any chance you'll be passing close to Chi in your travels?

S.

[kgaugler]

Good luck Fret. Come home soon.:D

[threecb]

May your move be as safe and pain-free as possible! Good Luck!

[mmmBeer...]

Get back soon! We'll miss your posts :)

[Jeff]

Good luck Fret, make sure if your move takes you through Nebraska to not stop very often. We are the wasteland when it comes to good beer. :)

[bigmf]

Best of luck on the move Fret. I'm sure you be back here worrying about your beer in no time. :D

M.

[brewmonkey]

Good luck! I understand the pains of moving, I have done it 17 times due in large part to being a military brat and then my time in the service.

[Tweek]

Good luck man. See you when you get settled into the new digs.

[Fast_Eddy]

Good luck on the move Fret. If you come through Austin(you could get lost I guess) let me know and I'll make sure you have good beer.

[chazwicke]

Good luck buddy! I'm glad your finally getting back to where you want to be. While we'll miss your posts we will raise a glass to you until you return. Hope everything goes smoothly and safely.

[skahtboi]

I'm telling you Fret, yer gonna miss Tennessee! Good luck on the move, I know you will be glad to see those "other" mountains.

[MARK123]

Good luck on the move fretster. Your gonna enjoy the mountains!! Did you ever figure out what was makin ya sick??

[crashbobo]

Good luck on your move. My wife's aunt and uncle live out there in Colorado as well as a couple of my friends. Maybe if I come out to visit them we could get together for a brew or two :)

[S.F.B.]

See you on the other side Fret. I get out to Denver every other year or so to visit family and friends. Maybe on my next trip out we can hook up for a couple of brews.

[ray m]

Take care, fretless.........hope your transition goes super-smooth!!

[BluesHarp]

...Colorado, eh? "The Beast" awaits!! Good luck on the move!

[fretlessman71]

No internet service yet, but we're here, safe and sound! I'll be logging on at some point in the next week and getting back to my overly verbose ways. Thanks for all the well wishes... they sure helped a lot!

[chazwicke]

WELCOME BACK!!!!

[threecb]

Glad to see you made it safe and sound!

[steveh]

I'm ready for that swap now! ;)

S.

[Beaver]

Welcome back (here!) Fret!

[Stodbrew]

Nice to have you back, Fret!

[davesarman]

Welcome back Fret. I bet the first beer you had was a Coors Light, eh? ;) Just kidding! Glad to have you back!

[Krougar]

I hope you have a good integration into your new home. I'd also like to thank you for the advice given about local brew interests in the area you gave me. I'll be sure to drink one for you at each of the places you listed for me.

[Fast_Eddy]

Fret - somehow I missed this post. Welcome back bro.

[fretlessman71]

Thanks! We are alive and well after the hardest move I've ever made in my life. I think Murphy moved into the back of the van, and then slipped into the back room of our new place... EVERYTHING has gone wrong. But we're alive, and we're HERE in the Mile-High-Land-Of-The-Micro! (Plus, my work place has regularly scheduled tours of the New Belgium plant... we can't wait to go! :D)

[S.F.B.]

Glad to see you made it. I will be looking you up next time I am in the "Mile High City".

Welcome back buddy! So where did you find gainful employment so quickly? And with fringe benefits at that!

S.

[fretlessman71]

I transferred from my old place of employment in TN. Without actually naming the restaurant, I'll go the old "wheel of fortune" route and say that I work for a major national chain seafood restaurant with a large ruddy crustacean on the sign out front.... ;) (Please don't guess; I'd love to keep my anonymity for a little while until I get enough bass students and gigs to be self employed again...)

You work at the Krusty Krab? :D

[fretlessman71]

I said NATIONAL... The Krusty Krab is in international waters. ;)

[wortchillergoal]

Good luck with the move. We will all probably fret about you until we hear from you again.

Drive fast and take chances.

[fretlessman71]

(smirk) Wort.... we're already HERE..... :cool:

[fretlessman71]

(smirk) Wort.... we're already HERE..... :cool:

[fretlessman71]

Hmmm... didn't I just say that? And who is stealing my identity anyway?

[I'mRocketMan]

Hey Fret! How was the move? Glad to see you're back!

Cheers! Rocket

I see Fret is already padding to make up for his lost time. :p

[fretlessman71]

1) CO is BEAUTIFUL! A little windy today, but that's fine... I grew up with it. Walked into 5 beer stores since I've been back, and there's more good beer than I could shake a bottle opener at in this town. Unbelievable!

The move stank, however... the only thing that didn't go wrong was an accident on the way here. But it's all in the past now, and I can safely sit back, watch our Voyager DVDs, and sip on a fresh 90 Shilling.

2) Pad my post count? Did you see just how far I am BEHIND??? I'll NEVER catch them at this rate... I think I'll have to settle for my status as the first one to reach 4 digits and let it be. Oh well....

I did not read through all posts and typed response due to being paged by son.

Move is not complete until you certify all the rooms.

"Certify"? Clarify, please....

If you mean that my wife and I have to christen each room, well, you'll just have to wonder about that.... ;)

Wonder is what makes the world go round.

I hope you and you fine wife enjoy your new surroundings.

No padding allowed!

[fretlessman71]

Yeah... no padding - uh, scratch that. :p

[DreamWeaver]

Welcome back fret! Hope you enjoy your new surroundings.

Just don't lick no frogs. :cool:
I'm not sure what that means but I was warned that back in 1969 on a visit and thought I'd pass it on.

Most things. I'm not too picky.

Thanks for the welcome back!

BTW.... in '69 I wasn't even a twinkle in my father's eye... did they have frogs back then here? I've seen ONE in over 25 years, and that was when I was a wee lad.

If you still weren't a twinkle in '69, then you still are a wee lad.

Good to have you back fret!
