Hi Jeff and welcome!
As Alvin says (his avatar really is what he looks like, by the way), we have a pretty active Stovebolt group here in the NoVA/MD area. We have a major weekend get together here at Stovebolt HQ the weekend of 26-28 April (Homecoming) -- We'd love to have you join us for all or part of the weekend. We have plenty of comping space available here (Stovebolt HQ also is a 17-acre christmas tree farm ). We have guys come from Lexington, Charlottesville, Fredericksburg, Winchester, Fulks Run and a few other places.
We have other things we do throughout the year, as well so if you can't make it to Homecoming, you can catch up with us somewhere else.
We have some active threads going over in the ODSS Forum -- stop in and introduce yourself in one of them. And don't be put off by any of our banter -- there's a group of us who have gotten to know each other pretty well and we sling BS at each other but it's all in fun/stress relief. Feel free to get in there and throw an elbow as well. Stovebolting is a contact sport, after all. And if ya ain't bleedin', ya ain't tryin!
Welcome aboard!
Hey Alvin and Leo -- Thanks for all the great greetin' you hombres have been doing.
Regards,
John
