Anxiously awaiting! One question I have is the funding without a "commercial-free" environment as I know what it costs to maintain even the basic of websites, or will it be advertising geared towards what the site will represent? Is this "your alone undertaking?" Thank you Gary!
What's It Gonna Be?

Like most things in life, this ended up costing me way more than I anticipated.
A lot more complicated too!

I'll be "paying the freight" on this one. I may consider advertising in the future but I'm not pursuing it at this time. Definitely No Pop Ups.
We'll be watching the amount of traffic and see if there's interest in sponsorship.
Gary, WOW!!! hats off to you!! I just know what it costs to maintain our website and thats including CO-OP dollars too and is no where involved as what something like this has to be. I am excited about it and am hoping it will be something very stand alone, don't have to be like everyone else, the "one off" appearance and feel of it will draw more traffic which may bring in more potential sponsorship and may attract the type of sponsorship and ads that will be more geared to the subject of the site. I cant wait to see it!!! THANK YOU GARY!!!!

. Thank you.
Just a quick update. We're still working through some bugs. Mostly, I need to be able to navigate and answer questions of users. If we open it now it'll just lead to a lot of frustration and I hope to avoid that as much as possible. It may go this weekend so keep checking back. I think it's going to be worth the wait when it's all up and I have a better understanding of all the moving parts.

"Out of an Abundance of Caution"
Man, I hate that phrase. It gives me flashbacks to the days of Covid. But I guess I'll use it just this once in this current post. The new website is active but we're holding off for anothe day before accepting members. My tech resources are off until early in the week and I'd like to have them available for any issues that pop up. That being said, I can share some graphics and content in the form of Screen Grabs to give you an idea of what things look like. So, once again. I'm just as anxious as you to get this thing on the road. Check back for our Soft Opening and the opportunity to join us.But before we do that...you'll be glad to hear that I've convinced Skiroule to join us by having his own page, dedicated to the restoration of vintage snowmobiles. He'll have editorial control over all things vintage, fishing, and seasonal happenings on Kelly's "Time Machine" Shop community page. Here's a look at what's to come.
