I haven't noticed Neal (nlemerise) around in a while. After the episode with Mark and Ron, I am a little concerned.

 

What's the episode with Ron?

 

he disappeared for a while without saying anything

 

^^^ What he said. Ron had to sell his house and he hasn't been on here since May. No one knew what the situation was until several people here went digging around. He popped in to tell us what was going on, and to my knowledge he hasn't been back in a long while.

 

Yeah, I know about that part. Victim of the economy I suppose. Wonder if he still has his truck?

Hope all is well Ron, drop a line or two when you can. Cheers bro.

 

Oh, you too Neal.

 

I thought I saw a post from him not too long ago (maybe a week).

In past years I know that he has sometimes driven a water truck during fire season, he may be working.

 

Think he has two jobs, a teacher and driving on the road, yep, haven't seen him on in a while.

 

His last activity here on FTE was 08-27-2009.

 

Lurking nowadays? C'mon Ron, it's OK. Chit happens. Just let us know you're OK. We are worried about you. You are always welcome here no matter what.

 

That was Neal's stats that I was looking up. I haven't heard from Ron for even longer. Understandable reasons.
I have Neal's phone number in my cell phone, too late to call him tonight.
I will call him in the morning and get back to you all with a report, even if it is only that I had to leave a voicemail message.

 

My bad. Thanks for clearing that up Dan. I hope both are doing well. Just seems Ron was posting way too regularly here to just fall off the map. I am also concerned about Neal but feel there is a good reason for his absence, not that Ron doesn't have one.

 

This is ironic as I was just wondering about Neal last week. If we don't here anything I'll take a ride out to his valley and snoop around a little if I have too.

Probably like most of us, just real busy.

 

I know he does something with firefighting the wildfires and maybe he is doing that. I know out in Cali they are having issues with that.

 

He drives the water truck or something like that.
I placed the call to his number and got the answering machine.
I left a message for him to please let us know that he is ok.
