Fwgoebel is busy in real life and may not respond swiftly to queries.
I don't have nearly as much free time as I had in the past, but I still check in daily to watchlist and when I have enough time to work on an article, I'll do it. A wikibreak won't keep me from reverting vandalism if I see it in my watchlist. Especially if it's in one of my projects.
Plans are underway for me to drive across the country and explore significant stretches of Route 66. That trip will begin July 26, 2008.
The Route 66 article is what brought me to Wikipedia in the first place. My early research on this historic highway led me down paths about all US Routes, then to New York State Routes, where I discovered many routes didn't have an article. I jumped in and took care of a few of them, to get them started, and worked to improve on many.
That activity will be on hold as I need to be ready for this trip, then unwind as I get back to work on August 4.
