Popping In

August 16, 2021 ttownhobby

Hello again, Hard to believe that four months have passed since I last posted. Truth is, I’m doing exactly what I said I wanted to do when this year began: I’ve been enjoying my time. I got a notice today from Word Press that a visitor by the name of Patrick commented on my Closing out 2020 post. To appreciate his comment fully, I reread my post and it made me smile. I do miss this and I fully intend on returning; but on my own time and when I have something that I want to share. First things first, … Continue reading Popping In

Closing out 2020

December 28, 2020 ttownhobby

This a weird one for me, but I suppose everything is weird this year. My boys are getting older and I need to make a space for them to play with their growing collection of Hot Wheels and super heroes. There is only one option of a place to do that: my mostly untouched gaming room. Yesterday, I started to really clean it up. It was getting out of hand, stacks of boxes and projects in various build states. It was starting to look rather run-down. I had a lot of things that I enjoyed very little. I decided to … Continue reading Closing out 2020

Grayson patted Scout on the shoulder. The boy was too hard on himself. The two had stayed back to train while the others took to various tasks around Tillman’s Rock. “I did it!” Came a triumphant cry from the back … Continue reading Rudduck Campaign Turn 2
