Pondoro - where are you?

I haven't seen any posts from our old friend Pondoro recently. I'm posting this in the Luthier's Lounge section, because he is interested in building and was quite active here.

I hope he is well and happy. Does anyone know him personally, or have any news?

John Colter.

I met him in person a couple of years ago at a uke gathering in Ohio. He is a very nice man. But like you, I been wondering about him because I haven't seen any posts from him in quite some time. I too, hope he is well.
