Hey Guys,
Thanks for the bumps! I am finally back! ;-)
A little update! 4 years ago my sister, Jamie, purchased a large horse farm and I spent much of my time for several years helping her with the day to day operations and shows, in addition to working with my own horse and working full time. As some of you know, I completed my Master's in Holocaust Studies in 2009 and then in 2011, I picked up a second job working as a Holocaust Resource Center Coordinator at Albright College. As if that wasn't enough insanity, a colleague and I embarked on a documentary creation project with our students that resulted in a feature length film, Misa's Fugue (www.misasfugue.com).
Sadly, during that time, my Fieros largely sat. I drove the Blue Demon occasionally, but it needed new brake lines and time wasn't easy to come by. Matt was also working at the local community college as an adjunct instructor so what time he did have, he spent towards getting the 88GT back on the road with its new engine build and transmission rebuild. Thankfully, that car was back on the road this spring.
In the meantime, we decided we needed a break from the insanity that had become our lives and Matt was homesick for the Shenandoah Valley. This past spring, we purchased a historic farmhouse (1839) and six acres. It is a "project" but we're now each back to one job (me teaching at a local HS, and Matt running a Manufacturing Tech program at a local community college). We have much more "us" time and "free" time to do fun stuff. The Fieros have joined us in Virginia and the Blue Demon is currently in storage while we finish our garage at our new home. Matt drives the Silver 88GT M-Th and I get to have "Fiero Fridays" - my favorite day of the week.
I'm looking forward to bringing this thread up to speed and keeping everyone posted on new things we will be doing. I've missed everyone a ton and am glad to be back!!
~ Jen

Back from the dead! I forgot about this car. Great to hear that life is good, and looking forward to updates. One of the first memorable Fieros when I joined.

Welcome back! I miss the continuation of http://www.fiero.nl/forum/A...502-6-067054-2.html. The museum here recently received a WW-II era boxcar. https://www.facebook.com/hmczfc . I'll watch your film soon. Hope you post pics of your renovation on the farmhouse.
