I sorry to hear it's no longer fun for you.

The most important thing I've collected in this hobby has been a few friends. My wife teases me about her wanting me to get out of this hobby because every time I turn around I'm telling her of another loss within the chipping community. It is very sad to hear of the losses that we've seen the past couple of years. Not sad for the chipping aspect but just sad to hear them pass away and leaving behind friends and family.

I am however looking forward to continuing to meet new individuals and hopefully more friends in the future.
