Hi, guys. I'm back since HS season is underway (sort of, between the melting snow and resulting wet fields, the start is kind of slow...).
Yeah, I "disappeared" for several months. It seems that every few years, my off-season become both mental and physical. It is not that I actively decide to take a break, I just find I apparently need a break as evidenced by my not clicking in to visit the various softball umpiring boards for awhile.
As I catch up on my thread reading, I'm sure I'll find something to argue about ... err, discuss, soon.
