My wife and I have regularly get together with others in our area to eat out, hang at the pool, etc.. I went from being a hermit to becoming a social butterfly.
Hey Vinnie, I was thinking about you the other day as I read one of your posts (don't remember which one) and recalled some of your first posts. At the time I thought you were trying to be somewhat of a hermit and you thought you weren't going to make friends easily. Well, in the famous words of Gomer Pyle, " SURPRISE, SURPRISE, SURPRISE!!!". Seems to me you're fitting in nicely and will have no shortage of friends. Over the past few months, I'll bet the other members like myself have seen you develop into that "social butterfly". I've enjoyed your posts and hope to meet you one day so I can become one of those friends
