It has been a blessing to have such mild weather.  Our first event, Bowling Night, helped raise over $300 for iFit charity and we had a blast doing it...that was Jan 14th

Winterfest is just around the corner on Feb 4th.  Get your crazy headgear out and dress warm cause I think february will make up for Jan in the snow department.  Looking forward to the 6 crazy games and hot food.  Go check out the forum for further details...

We are down but not out. 

12/12  first noticed date error garbage' on header of forum and gallery..was puzzling..had mtg that night.

12/13 tried to find cause and looked at phpbb community for related error or fixes. tried a restore through forum admin panel...did not work

12/14 sent email to hosting service for tech support asked for full backup

12/20 tech stated our newer version was reading older version database on the forum causing error.

12/23 discovered only my downloaded backup from May (up through Brutis) 501 users was saved lost approx 78 (determined by stats from mtg) as well as all the data (posts, topics, pm) worked on building latest version of forum and gallery. Went to Joe Joyners home to see if we can team up on database fill to new version or point to old database

12/24 bridged gallery and coppermine, installed bbcode and post enhancement (MS word like)  still have issue trying to fill new DB with old one...

All this and still managed to find time for family and family events. I am off this monday and will be working on this.. Basically we have to rebuild the forum and gallery.  Worst case on DB is to have a friend at work on tuesday that knows this kind of thing fix our database.

now for some R&R and sugar plums to dance through my head.  Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!!

Where did the summer go?  Way so much fun that it flew by...

Picnic was a great time..i found out that not everyone likes rasberry soft serve or lemon. Stick to vinella and chocolat right? I believe Brooke and Jeff got the gold in cornhole...cograts you two!!

Rulli's prooved itself a fine patio for giant jenga..was that a record height when even a chair won't do?

Rock's and Valleys was fantastic ..even as a spotter.  I found the best steak in town..right next to carquest...then to hit Toledo for thier 70th anniversary was quite the honor.

Fall Color Run ...thanks Aces and Mother Nature of Allegan for a colorfull and inspiring run. Lake Michigan was outrageous!

BooFest was special since we had the privalage of crushing not one but two cars this year! Thanks Lochmandy's for the lot and the hot food!!

My wife..sla8woman..i mean Julie and I look forward to the Christmas Party tomorrow..see you there!!

Get your rigs Winter Ready..snow is a comming..just like WinterFest and another great year.  Enjoy the Holidays!!!
