Dear Readers,

Just a quick note to apologize for the delay in responding to emails and comments.

This and the past couple of weeks, I’ve been spending all of my free time chainsawing and preparing Hurricane Helene tree debris for removal by FEMA.

I’ve hired a skid steer operator to help move the debris to the roadside, and I’ve been working hard to stay ahead of him—it’s been a full-time effort!

As a result, my inbox has been piling up (well over 100 messages now!), and I haven’t had much time to check in. If you’ve reached out, I truly appreciate your patience—I’ll be catching up as soon as I can.

This weekend (Friday–Sunday), I’ll be at the Charlotte Hamfest, and I’m looking forward to meeting some of you there! If you see me, please say hello.

Thanks again for your understanding, and I appreciate all of your support!

72,
Thomas (K4SWL)
