I am amazed at the sense of community we had at Badger Pond.

I was in the N. Raleigh "WoodWorking Shop" during their Customer Appreciation Sale (10% off everything in the store) last Saturday. I had my Badger Pond cap on as I had just found out the day before that Badger Pond was closing and was in mourning. :-(

One of the other customers spoke up about "Badger Pond" and asked if it was still on-line. I told him that it had just closed down. He told me about this new forum call Saw Creek Mill or something.

Sure enough, I check into "SawCreekMill.org" on Monday morning and find most of the "Cronies" alive and posting a zillion times a week as they did at the Pond.

Thanks all you former Ponders for setting up here at the Creek.
I am very glad to have to relocated and didn't lose the community along the way. Thanks to all who help make the Creek a warm and friendly place!

Cheers,
Bob Janka

(Darn those beavers at US Army Corps of Engineers. What right did they have to go and drain the Pond? :-) (Well. at least they widened the creek downstream at the SawMill. ;-)

Bob, other than the appearance and a lot more options, it's hard to tell that you left the pond. The names are quite familiar and the sense of community is there as well.

Keith, Aaron and Jackie have done a great job of setting this place up and are working extremely hard to make it better. They are also very receptive to input from the run of the mill creeker. (Nice play on words, huh)

See you around

I was a bit bummed by the colsing of the Pond, but as I hang out here more and more its begin to feel real comfortable and I have come to appreciate the extra features here on the Creek.

Have a seat on that rock over yonder and soak your feet awhile. As was said, can't have too many Bobs around here.
