Congrats! I retired as a classroom teacher in 2013. I decided 32 years was long enough for that, and it was time...

Thank you Piping Abe and Father Tom . . . my second retirement as I retired from the energy industry in 2002 after 30 years. This time the construction industry. I had always set my sights on the end of year of my 70th year.

Glad I cellared a pound or three as I figure out what next life has in store.
