Do tell a bit about yourselves, and jump in here whenever.

To start you off, I'm the primary mutant in the family, but DH is pretty strange, too. <hide> We live in IL, although DH, Martin, is originally from England. (London) We are roughly 1/2 timers now. Currently no pets. I'm into all sorts of arts and crafts; Martin is the techie and mechanical marvel. Both of us cook, with varying results. 😋

Again, welcome!

I believe you met Elaine at some point. I hate to say this and please keep it under your hat but.........Elaine may be normal. No...I'm not kidding. I really suspect she is. Me, I'm mutant all the way!!!

I am into photograhpy. Even have a bidness goes by the name of Photography by Redding. Elaine ask how I came up with that. I said it came to me in a dream. She said it was very, very.....original.......

Before anyone inquires, I cannot make people look normal in photos. For instance when I do a selfie I look short and wide. Anyway I just do outdoor and not very commercial at that yet.

Originally from Alabama (not really lived there since I was 19), graduated from the U of Maine, spent over 6 years in the USAF, 1966 to 1973, spent most of my working life keeping beverage plants running, love to fish. That's about it since somebody we all know and love promised to shoot me if I got into politics or religion.

Steve as I have done my ketchup reading I see you called for an update on CL Redux 1.2 and Most Illustrious Potentate I will comply with your request. However, the temps at RVM Central Annex have been off eating turkeys and pies and cakes and...oh my are currently in a sugar coma that won't wear off till Monday. The list is locked away in the mystic vault, hermetically sealed in an envelop that I can't get to until Monday. Sooooo.... Mutey's expect a Mutey's Bulliten at that time.

In the meantime, I am most excited to put in a shameless plug for the first ever, possibly to be repeated countless times at yet to be disclosed locations, GC@CL Redux 1.2. For our new Mutants we are having a repeat of last years gathering in Hot Springs, AR. In April, 2015 at Catherine's Landing on beautiful Lake Catherine. We will have another Grand Curiosity of the highest proportions involving currently about 20 mutants. There is still time to secure your reservation to join this eclectic group.

There will be food preparations fit for kings, the fog of smoked bacon will hang over the park, the endless banter of musings will be constant, and their will be a live wire party complete with our own Mutant band playing all kinds of great music to stir even our most aged legs to dance. And to top it all off, our Grand Poohbah himself will re-open the sacred kimono to reveal who know what? Ohhhh the thought of it churns my stomach. Our resident painter of renowned notoriety will be offering her considerable talents to teach you how to express yourself on paper! Yet another of our world travelers will be spinning her yarn up a storm and imparting her wisdom.

Their will be many animals including our mascot Sena the monkey, talking birds, barking dogs, and probably a few wild and crazy mutants! Oh wait.....they just act like animals. Mutants from far and wide have already committed to attend this historic conclave. But we still have room for more. So Mutey's old and new, if you don't have plans for next April, come join the greatest bunch of people you will ever meet so you can put a face(no matter how bad Wayne and Tim look) with a name of the strangers you have been divulging your secrets too.

For space assignments and instructions as well as general info please feel free to PM this mutant for a quick and no doubt witty response. We would love to meet you in person so let's hear from you muteys.

even if it did come with a shameless plug.......

We were at GC@CL in 2014 and plan on attending this coming year. It was a lot of fun with the opportunity to meet some wonderful group of mutants.

We recommend that all mutants attend this Grand Curiosity. Again welcome mutants RVM102

Steve and Mary Ann. Are you still in Indiana?

Redding - didn't seem like 2 hours... being new to retirement and full timing I'm not yet accustomed to the way time works or how to apply measurement to it... and what's odd, we didn't even get to the part where I say - photography and fishing are 2 of my favorite things.
My new camera and fishing bay... kind a makes leaving tomorrow a big bummer... we had one or two more things to talk about...

The great conundrum...

Back in the day if you called me SIR as an NCO I would say, "Don't call me sir, I W**K for a living." Now that I don't w**k for a living...I still hate SIR! LOL

Good news Don and Misty! You can now pass mop and broom detail down to RVM 102.

We hope all RVMs can joins in HotSprings, AR in April. I can promise you the time of your lives. Heck, we didn't even let nearby tornados spoil the fun last year. Hmmm, I wonder what tests Mother Nature will have in store for us in 2015? Well, no matter. RVMs can handle anything.

Too early to tell whether we can make it to HotSprings, AR this coming April, but you never know.

As for the mop and broom, that is why we have six kids, to do the chores.

Thanks!
Don
