: Well folks, here it is. Another year gone. They seem to go by faster and faster the older I get. No problem, as long as they keep a-coming!

: This year was pretty noteworthy for the Gnomes. Firstly, the gnomes were BORN. They moved from warm California to cold Wisconsin. Had a breakdown in Phoenix on the way, saw Vegas and Hoover Dam, a two car caravan of 2000 miles. Got settled in to the new tree house, sorted things out, got settled in.

: This was the first full year that the gnome has been making rifles.
: Had its ups and downs, but I feel a lucky man to be able to do something I like, be my own boss, and learn more about the trade with each rifle. It is also the first year of my joint venture with Rich and Elaine and killdeer. I look forward to the next year working with the two of them.

: Betty and I attended our FIRST Gathering!!! Yay! Finally got to hug everybody I had known for several years!!! It was a great time. Started out locked out of our cabin, with Diana driving us all over creation trying to find a key and ending with good old Eric Hurley scampering up a thin, wobbly, TALL little tree 20 feet in the air, hopping onto the deck, and opening our cabin door from the inside!!
: What a guy. What an advencha. Got to meet lots of wonderful folks, saw grand vistas and groves, and trod where our LOTM folks had trod.

: Betty and I, finding we are indeed still compatible and loving after
: four years, made the union official and married. We kept our own last names, but became formally and officially Mr and Mrs Gnome.

: Betty's daughter-in-law gave birth to a daughter of her own. A cute little thing with blue eyes a-gurgling and smiling. Betty has taken on the grandma role proudly and well.

: And, the year began and ends with comradery and love for all the folks on the board and Mohicanland - and Mohicanland's First Persons
: who make it possible - Rich and Elaine!

: To you all - each and every one of you - may you enjoy a wonderful New Year's celebration and enjoy a loving, prosperous, eventful and successful year of 2001!!!! Hugs all around!

: Mr and Mrs Gnome :)

Hi, Bill!

Thanks for a great post! The "year-end recaps" one finds on tv this time of year always bring a tear to my eye, but this was better than anything! So glad to have the Gnome & Gnomette in Mohicanland!!

Try not to freeze up yonder, now!
