I hate to say it, but it's virtually deserted. I just saw a post that has six layers of spam.

Jacon is evidently having serious health issues; I don't know if we'll see him again.

That leaves about 3 of us.

Oh my Mart!  What is going on with Jacon?

I didn't have internet for a few days but still here.  All the other sites are little to no activity as well. Even friends that still have stores have some lookers but few purchases.  They, like I, believe you will see increased activity start coming back in fall/winter.  People were/are worn out from all the lock downs of COVID and enjoying being out with others in person! 

How are you faring with these 100+ days?  I have plants dying from the harsh sun/heat that I planted 31 years ago!  We are watering (the water bills prove it) it is almost futile!

Jacon started a thread on the "other" site titled "My final post." He's had surgery and heart issues.

Nope, not yet!
Went to hospital July 8th, had 2 stents installed which was hoped would do the trick. On post-op exam it was discovered I had other heart issues and they wanted to do further surgery. I decided not to go that route and come home, and get my affairs in order.

OH jacon4...I am soooooo sorry to hear this.  My mom has had several issues with hers and got her affairs in order over 10 years ago and is still going strong (she's turning 84 in 3 weeks and Dad is turning 94).  Hopefully yours will be the same - still alot of life left to go.

Is there anything we can help with?  (Seriously.)
