    I received a gift card and a really cool "moose" from a certain someone who said it was from my FHC family. As well as a jar of fresh honey from another member. Honestly, I don't feel I'm deserving of near the credit that others here are. Grizz, both Brians, Dex, Dave, Pete, Jerome and Ray and Swags.......honestly, these guys have my utmost respect and I consider them as well as all of you members the REAL reason this place not only exists, but THRIVES.

    I seem to get a little softer each year, a little more emotional. Maybe it's my age. But I'm thinking it's because I have an extended family that not only spans the Continent, but the globe. And I sincerely mean it when I say I love all you guys and gals that make this place what it is. It's a getaway, a seat around a very exclusive fire, a retreat, a cozy couch next to the fireplace. I didn't build any of that, all of you guys and gals did. May God Bless each and every one of you this Christmas as well as all year. I'm very proud to call all of you family.

    Getting a little emotional now here in SWVA, Scott.... :tears::D
    Very poignantly put, but as the founder, you built this mantel, and you so humbly and graciously watch over it, and it's upkeep and support and liveliness are the result of great folks modding, and great folks contributing.
    I thank you for the opportunity to add my $.02 often and right here in this post!
    I need a tissue.....
    For real.

    I'll say one thing about me,and believe me when I say that I'm not trying for attention or for praise.......but I say exactly what I feel. You can ask anyone who knows me personally, they'll attest to that. I wear my emotions on sleeve, yes sometimes I "toughen up" and suppress them. But when I say something, I mean it. And believe me when I say that I am above and beyond proud of what you all make this site to be. Beyond words.

    Thank you, from the very bottom of my heart to all involved, for the gifts you gave the admins and mods here. I think I speak for all of us when I say that. I just can't say it enough how proud I am to belong to this place.

    Having met you and knowing you for a few years, you are a very genuine person!! None of us would be here if you didn't have the dream, the vision, and the drive to create the best Wood, OPE, Pellet, etc Forum on the planet!!!!

    The staff here does a great job!! But without your dream? None of this would be a reality! :)

    Cheers to you Scotty!!

    Good for you sounds good.. :D.


    But it stands for Go F*&K yourself.. It has a long standing history with a former member Chity_Avatar (R.I.P. Phil Fortsch). It's not meant to be derogatory. It was his way of saying hello. :) If that makes sense. :thumbs:

    Well said Scotty, I can say without reservation I love this place as much as you do and I appreciate you and all the mods as well. I remember just like it was yesterday when you virtually put your shoulder against me and said stay in touch before we had our new home and that's what family does my friend. Merry Christmas and May God shine his light on you and yours this holiday season.

    "Good Morning Bri!"

    "GFY Erik!"
