We get a taste of it a weekend at time. And then a week at a time once or twice a year. Someday...... Glad retirement works for you!

But you're not really, REALLY into it unless you start forgetting what day of the week it is!

And be careful. Work has a way of sneaking back into your retirement. I'm spending 10 weeks helping out a friend running a plant in Michigan. It's helping to pay for that new 3160 when they get it designed. Enjoy your retirement. We spent 29 weeks traveling in our first year and a half. As Walt said, eventually, you forget what day of the week it is.

We're happy for you!
Ours will come this April 30th. That will be our last day of work. We have every confidence that we'll enjoy it immensely.

Been eight years now, almost nine and the only problem I've found is you never get a day off when you're retired. Got to figure out somehow to just find that day off and relax a little more! Enjoy it and don't look at that clock because it doesn't matter what time it is, and remember it's 5 o'clock somewhere!

If you think you like it now, it only gets better year by year. Once you get used to it, you find new ways to make it better and better.

7 years for me. I miss the people I worked with, some of the places we used to go for lunch and of course the paychecks, but that's all. I don't miss driving 70 miles every day, the work or trying to find time to do things I wanted to do!

Congrats!!! It has been over 12 years for us and from day 1 we never looked back! I' sure you guys will enjoy many more years traveling the country. Hope to see you in August at the Mid-Atlantic.

We have 12 working days left (not counting ) hope to be in Florida by 12/15. Still trying to lock down a place to stay. I could stay at wal mart just to have to not work any longer. Looking forward to it.

Isn't life just grand? Glad retirement is suiting you well.

December 31st is my last day for the daily grind....

Then it is a new year and a new chapter in our lives!

See you down the road.
