For a few years (like maybe ten?) there have been well hidden sites on WetWesties.org. Last night, one of our resident website experts (BG) resurrected another lost site.

As many of you know, Jim Thompson had a website, oldvolkshome.com with a fairly unique gathering of information. When Jim passed away last year, his site stayed up for a while but as often happens, eventually the fees aren’t paid and our community loses another resource. 

As of yesterday evening, oldvolkshome lives again. Some of the links were broken and they have been modified to point to the waybackmachine archive.

So, on your Sunday afternoon, raise a glass to Jim Thompson to thank him for gathering this stuff for us. His site lives again!

and Joe Clark’s Tents page still lives as well.
