Hello all, yes I am still alive, Happy Thanksgiving!

Words and stuff

@vhab49_PE I am still around, sort of...  Too busy and unmotivated to spam, plus the one getting shut down just before the end last time rubbed me the wrong way. On a positive note, my birthday is coming up on the 19th so I keep getting all these emails from restaurants I signed up for that...

I am curious as to which (if any) professional organizations you guys are a member of. This can be either you personally or perhaps an employer membership that covers multiple people. Both Engineering specific as well as public agency ones. I am considering joining one or a few, but also want to...

See, it works flawlessly, got the email today that the seal is approved.

Lol that’s what I’ve experienced with this thread, ask a question or mention your issue and a day or so later it clears up! Im wondering if you didn’t have things as organized or the fingerprints took time to process or something? Maybe it depends who your reviewer is, but you submitted before...

Got them in! Thanks for the info Blewis, it seems once I ask the question and you respond, things come in a few days later! You have me curious on the frame you mention, able to link a photo or website of it?  Is it just an overall state seal, or an engineering state seal? Right now mine is...

Just to toss this in there, this was a good example that we found of what we may consider trying to include. The fact that it is a wooden structure meant we had a good chance of getting materials donated or at cost and then we could do the labor ourselves with ease.

It took me a solid 10 minutes I think to figure out why in the world I wasn't able to reply to a thread I started or create a new one in a random subforum I picked just to check if it was working. I thought I did something wrong on here to get permissions removed or something lol. I now know...

Figured I’d add one last piece to this thread.  How long did it take to get your paper certificate? I figured they’d mail the same week you get your number, do they wait until you send in your stamp for approval? Im coming up on 10 days now from approval and want to hang it on my wall! My...

We honestly haven’t taken it that far yet and it’s also the last piece to the park so it isn’t 100% guaranteed to be included (or at least not by our class). We still need to make sure we can raise the funds needed for everything else first (plastic play structures, musical equipment, swing with...

I’ve never thought anything like this through before or paid any attention to it, it’s all new to me. I don’t know the rules for an S.E., had a feeling that a structure with multiple people on it would require someone to make sure it’s properly designed and supported. I will look into it more...

I'm not a S.E. which is what I anticipate would be needed.  I do plan to try and find someone local, but don't have any contacts so it will be more of a cold call or email scenario on a few attempts. I thought reaching out here wouldn't hurt though and gave it a try.

I can go into more details later or in private, but I’m going to try and keep the initial post short.  I work for a small city in Texas and the City Chamber of a Commerce does a leadership school every few years where they get a dozen or so people that work inside the city in various ways...

New to the thread, figured I’d start out strong with County Prison food! We visited the courthouse and a few places which included eating the same lunch the prison was having, but in a conference room during a presentation. A few inmates (trustees) helped serve.  Chicken patty, mashed...

Only been once for 2 or 3 days and the couple key spots I remember were: Mardi Gras World to tour a big warehouse where giant parade floats are both stored and created, Cafe Du Monde where you stand in a long line for beignets, Pat O’Briens for hurricanes and pretty good food, obviously...
