Hi,

I am Dave, and commonly go by the handle of Chappy as I am also a medically retired US Army Chaplain.

I am married and 57 YOA. Currently we are staying in El Centro California while I await my turn to have a double lung transplant. (Results necessitated by my service in Desert Shield/Storm)

The moderators were gracious enough to allow me to join even though I will be lurking from "twice out of sight" for the next little bit.

I call The Knoxville TN area home but right now the lungs God gave me can't handle the humidity that I grew up with.

I mostly think of myself as a "Wood Butcher" because my time in the military did not allow for honing my skills in woodworking. I have a fair "Basic Shop" but need to develop my skill level.

IF the transplant comes thru we are hoping to once again live in the East Tennessee or Northern N Carolina are.

My wife is Pat and she hails from Knoxville. No children, but for those of you who would understand, we have a dog, and there is a cat who puts up with us.

God bless,

"Chappy" ~ Dave

Greetings! First, thank you for your Service. Hope all goes well with your operation.

Look forward to hearing all about your foray into the wonderful activity of taking perfectly good trees and molding them into other stuff
