Hitting the old dusty trail...
Hey guys,
As I'm sure it comes as no surprise, I haven't been very active as of late. With a new job and baby and other interests taking up what little time I do have, I am not doing this league, nor Mr. Streets any favors. This has been a decision I've been weighing for a while now and in the end I just don't think I am willing to put into the league what someone else can, so it is with a heavy heart that I tender my resignation.
I will remember the league and my time in it fondly. I hope that whoever takes up the Farstriders helm provides the time, care and thoughtfulness that the organization deserves.
Regardless, thank you to everyone who helps make this league what it is... and that is all of you. What a run. Good luck out there.
Signing off,
Ken

Re: Hitting the old dusty trail...
Ken,
Your podcasts with R.J. back in 18-19 originally got me hooked on PEBA when I started playing OOTP.
It seems surreal to me that you're departing, but I wish you and your young family the very best of luck.
Maybe our stars will align and we can have a Cold Smoke at the Kettle House in Missoula someday.
Bon Voyage, pal.

Re: Hitting the old dusty trail...
Very sad to see you leaving Ken, your contributions to the league have been enormous and lasting. But as someone who can vividly recall the same situation in my life I can sympathize, and hope to see you back ‘round these parts again soon. Take care

Happy trails Ken! I'm selfishly disappointed to see you go but glad you'll be able to spend more time with your family.

Totally understand, Ken... I took my hiatus when I had a kid and a new role at work. Hope things go smoothly for you and that the family is well.

We might need to bring that back if anyone is interested in carrying it on with me.Warriors wrote: ↑Thu Apr 27, 2023 4:30 pm Ken,
