The Eagle Has Landed!!

Danny, Michael, and I (Tom) couldn't be happier and more impressed with our members and friends! It would be wonderful if we all got to know each other better. Here's a forum to post images and short autobiographies of ourselves as well as any other info you would like to post about yourself. We are looking forward to meeting you all!

The Eagle Has Landed!!

Post by Bald Eagle »

I always wanted to say that. (sorry) Hello, I just wanted to introduce myself, My name is Rick and I am a certifiable Macro-holic, and I'm quite comfortable with that. I hope to join this Forum and continue my learning process,(it will take forever) and if I can help anybody, I would be glad to. I've seen some excellent work on this site. My family and I live in Bartow Florida. Seems to be a Bug Haven. Thanks.

Hi ya Rick. Well, I went to high school at Jax Beach, Fl, lived in Cocoa Beach for awhile, hail from Savannah, GA and currently reside up here in the cold old NE (PA).

I am old too :lol: since we seem to be on that subject. Glad to have you on the forums and look forward to viewing your post.

Anything more than 3 cannot be counted as a follicle, it classifies as hair. Thats my story and I'm sticking to it!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
