VitusBering Posted December 18, 2022 Share #1 Posted December 18, 2022 I'm a long-time Arctic denizen, having lived many years in interior Alaska. I retired to New Mexico in a tiny town that is Smokey Bear's natal village. Out of the freezer and into the furnace, I suppose. Actually, due to the 7000 ft. altitude, the weather here is astonishingly mild. I look forward to a pleasant and rewarding relationship with MSW and NRG, these are fine outfits and will no doubt prove invaluable in my model building endeavors. I started a build log and will add substance to that when I actually begin the latest project - one that has been done so many times by so many people that it could be called a rite of passage. I've received numerous warm greetings and words of encouragement from staff and other members. Thank you all, profusely.
