Just a comment..the Rio Grande Valley encompasses most of the population of New Mexico; from Las Cruces to Albuquerque. But really, there is no reason not to include Santa Fe as well. Is there any way we can get included too?

Shortly, New Mexico will have its own forum set.

Ditto for Oklahoma, which is now partnered with NM because that was the way at the mother ship.

Thanks! So there really is someone out there. Albq. and Santa Fe seem to have some very nice providers, but they seem unaware/unattached to this project. I'm scheduling one of them next week and will try to provide a review.

..and don't be shy about letting them know of this existence as long as you are comfortable they are in fact whom they profess to be
have a nice weekend

[hardknots]

OK, I hear what youa are saying. If I feel comfortable I will tell her about this

home2 was intentionally started as very low key...when the mothership in 2008 had way too many blackouts and hiccups, home2 was a way for those in the M&G (socials) portion of the community to maintain communications.

home2 was opened (restricted) to greater portions of the aspd community in early 2009 as the interruptions became more frequent and aspd site fixes didn't happen. More than 6,000 members joined during the 60 day blackout in Feb-March 09.

At the end of the mothership's life cycle, amid all the wracking new rules following BustyGirl's death, home2 yet again became a "port in the storm" for those needing refuge and resource.

Later this month home2 will be way more public, have an easier to remember site address, a somewhat new look and new members will be able to sign up more freely. Providers will have more ways to advertise and promote their services, too.

The private and M&G restricted areas of home2 will remain intact. Some private areas will be expanded, especially for members who desire or require more privacy than an "open to all" site offers.
