Hi Franklin, yes, a long time. I have five grandchildren now and much of my free time is devoted to them. Also, I have had a lot of work in the past few months and have not had that much time to take part in the discussions here, although I visit the Shadows sites almost every day.
Hope you are well. If you are anything like the way you play guitar, then you are in excellent condition !!!
Take care,
Bojan
