Because of the number of emails I am getting lately I thought I would post this on the various modelling sites as likely not everyone reads my Facebook page.
On May 3 the city in which I live and run Formations out of (Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada) was completely evacuated due to a raging wildfire. I only got back into my house yesterday (June 6). I am lucky and there is no major damage to deal with. However this has delayed the reopening of the website as right now I have more pressing matters to take care of. I am doing my best to answer emails as I get them, and hope to have a chance to work on a new item or two.
Right now the target for the website going back online is September 1. I am giving a pessimistic estimate as I don't want to have to keep pushing it back. Once life is back to normal I hope to get things up and running again.

As we watched daily, the view and the news became more frighting. It had to be extremely stressful having to abandon your home to move to safety. I am glad your home was spared and you have the opportunity to move back towards a normal life. I am sure everyone will be quite understanding.
