Hello, my name is Mike and I wandered over this way from the wargaming drop zone where I found out about this forum from Whiterook, I have already met Chromedome and tcoat over there.
I'm a retired CNA/Med Tech that worked mainly with alzheimer's residents these past 30 years or so. Model building and board wargaming helped me tremendously with my own mental health during these times.
I'm married to my wife Susan, it will be 37 years this month. We have no children. We love dogs and have both had them all our lives.
Thanks for having me.

Well welcome to the forum Mike! It's great to have you here bud. This hobby has helped me through some pretty tough times as well. I'm a recovered alcoholic and after sobering up I needed something to keep my mind busy and this definitely helped out. Congratulations are in order for your anniversary.
Looking forward to seeing some of your work.
If you need anything just reach out
Joe

Well, hey there buddy!!! …glad to see you make it this way! There’s a cool wargaming subforum here, my friend so it’s good to see another wargamer to help on that area.
If I may point this out, Mike is an awesome figures painter… something I’ve struggled to learn, and his workin that, and modeling in general have been a major source of inspiration and education for me. He’s a hell of a great wargamer, too! Mike goes back to the days of my very first wargaming forum (all of which featured model building as a sub feature), Tin Can General, and he’s been a global moderator for every incarnation since, including the current Wargaming DropZone.
Welcome aboard!
