mogurnda June 1, 2023 Share June 1, 2023 Hey All, We have finished the move to New Mexico, but WAMAS lives on in my head. I had a dream last night that I was working in the new house and waiting for someone to pick up some equipment, but could not find my phone. Next thing I know, the person had come by and left frags on the doorstep, but did not get their equipment. What was I going to do with frags WHEN I DIDN'T HAVE A TANK ANYMORE???!! Then I woke up, and was relived that I would not be killing the corals after all. Anyway, thanks for everything over the years. Once I get settled, I will try to find new reef colleagues and get a tank or two set up. It will be harder without you. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanM June 1, 2023 Share June 1, 2023 Don't worry, we can satisfy that itch by sending 1000 bags and some large coral colonies to you in October so you can still do fragfest and overnight it all back to us. 8) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReefdUp June 1, 2023 Share June 1, 2023 Oh goodness, what a dream! Glad you're getting settled in safely. Lots of previous members are still active here, and you're welcome to stay active here too. Hope you find a local group soon, too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treesprite June 4, 2023 Share June 4, 2023 I've had some rather crazy hobby-related dreams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a dream that the fish were turning into monsters that were trying to get out of the tank. In another dream which I had a couple times, the fish were swimming through the air all around the room and I was trying to catch them to put them back in the tank (they seemed oblivious to the fact that they weren't in water).

Sent from my Note 10+5g using Tapatalk Glad to hear the engineer is happy. I had that fish for a long time. Just starting to think about setting up, and my hunt for hobbyists and shops in Santa Fe and Albuquerque hasn't turned up much. It will take more time (and money) to get things going again. Spending a little time in Baja California this week. Saw a huge pod of dolphins as we were heading to the field site. Retirement isn't all bad.

This little guy was sitting by the steps on the way to the van they morning we packed up. Seemed happy to see us go. Came close to fully retiring a little early.

Great to hear from you, Dave. A lot of the old timers pop in and out, time permitting. Still trying to figure out what exactly I'll be doing. Take care!
