Congratulations. Sometimes I wish I was in your shoes.
I've been in the stone business for 37 years and always thought about what it would be like to not have to go to work everyday. I would love to be able to just hunt, fish and shoot whenever I want as well as work in the yard and just relax. Unfortunately I own the company and will be at this for at least the next 10 or 15 years. I just hope I have the health and energy to be able to do those things at that point.
Enjoy yourself and kill some critters for me.

Congratulations! I'm looking forward to my first day of retirement about 6 years from now.

Congrats!!
I have found that retirement is the second best "job" I have ever had.
Being grandpa is by far the best!!
But wait, being grandpa is not a job.....

Good for you elkhunter, and here's a hearty "congratulations" to you! You earned it, now enjoy it. Our paths will cross some day in the TX Hill Country I predict.

Thank you folks for all the kind wishes! During my many years in the field I remember going home many many days and nights so tired that I didn't think I could make it to my pickup to drive home. On the other hand I also remember going home with my ribs aching from laughing so hard. God Bless America!
