Subject: A good-bye of sorts
Hey everyone. I haven't been around much this year and thought I'd make it official and have enough manners to say good-bye. With everything that has gone on with my life over the past couple of years and not giving myself the chance to deal with it properly, I've finally decided to face all of that as my highest priority. In other words, quit my job, sell my house, pack up the dogs in the short bus and be a nomad for 2008. Not sure where I'll end up (geographically, spiritually or mentally), but it'll have to be about the journey as there really isn't any destination. It's been great being part of this community we call BT. Thank you for all of the support so many of you have given me throughout the years. See you all back here in 2009.

-Frank

Thanks for the update, Frank.  Good luck on all 3 aspects of your journey...not sure there's ever really a destination, just way-points.  Take care.

Frank, it's good to hear from you. I think I've heard somewhere that the best part of any journey is the getting there. Take your time, adn I hope you find what you're looking for.

Yeah, Frank, don't be a stranger. I know I'm not alone here when I say i've gained strength through your travails and the way you've handled adversity. Look forward to your return when your journey leads you back to us.

Thanks for the update. 

You probably can't be anywhere in the US without being within 50-100 miles of a BT'er.  Stop in for a visit!

PeterAK - Enjoy your soul searching Frank! Best of luck to you.

Thanks for checking back in, Frank.

You were one of the main people that got me hooked on this site and this sport.  It was great to finally meet you last year. 

Best of luck in the next year. (Going to Africa maybe? )
