Welcome!

 

Welcome to the boards!!

 

Welcome leiacollector1 !!!

 

hello! nice to meet ya! BBQ at my house on 7/24. hope you can make it!

 

I am a newbie as well just joined. I am from Shrewsbury. I got word of the fanforce forum from a member of one of the yahoo SW groups I am in. So I figured I would give it a try. I have been in MA for 4 yrs now and still trying to adjust to life outside of the Midwest. lol

Welcome to the boards!! Living in MA is good aside from the strange weather sometimes.

 

Thanks for the welcome. The weather isn't too bad. I prefer more hot and humid. At least it isn't like MN where if it is 90 it feels like 65/70. lol Then again anything is cool for a person that used to work on roofs of factories and commercial buildings. lol

My biggest adjustment has been getting used to the people, lifestyle, cost of buying a house, and attitude of the East Coast. lol I'm definitely not in Chi-town or Minne any more. lol

That would be a large adjustment anywhere.

 

Welcome to the over-inflated real estate market that is Massachusetts!

That is annoying...

 

Welcome chewykingwookie!!

We should be getting back to business soon with meets and posting.

It is just a slow time the summer months.

 

Thanks for the welcome. I was looking for a place to be able to meet up with people with similar interests. Since moving to MA like more than 4 yrs ago I haven't had much time to meet people outside my wife's circle of friends. Every where I have worked at so far has either moved out of state or outsourced so I haven't been able to get many friends. lol I currently work two jobs which leaves no time at all. lol

Anyway, I know what you mean about groups being slow int he summer time. The yahell group I am in is kinda slow right now as well. They are some pretty cool people and I have met a few of them at C3. That was pretty cool.

I look forward to attending some functions and gatherings. There is a bunch of stuff going on here soon that I didn't even know about so it should be interesting.
