Enjoy it....
Been retired since 2015
Turning 60 next year.
Bidding time for that SS pocket money schit at 62 I been hearing so much about.
Probably have to eat cat food and soda crackers to get by...
😄😄😄 What, no senior discount hours, 1600-1730 at the CiCi's?

At 63 I will have been retired for 16 years. It's a good gig and good for you getting out of Oregon.

Enjoy it!
We just had an inquiry-soft offer on our primary house/land in Virginia[as in yesterday] from a local developer.
Has my head spinning to be honest.
Shutter the famdamily business after 80 years[39 for me] and walk away?
Selling would facilitate the above.
Struggling, dad worked here until 80+, grandad worked here until the day he died.
Again ENJOY! Schittt. Cut slingload on that Reaford. Anyone else in the family gonna carry the business after you??? If so give it to them and bail. If not bail. You have always been wanting to move to TN time....

Enjoy every minute and don't ever look back.

I pulled the plug just over a year ago and now every day is Saturday. Sounds like you’ve got the finances all set.

My current job is writing SW for a device that makes drones do things their operators don't want. Like fly off into the sunset and crash into a hillside. So if I move into your neighborhood, be careful where you take pictures.  tinyurl.com/mu7v63vy

Again ENJOY! Don't be like Dad, or especially Grandad. No way! Dad has been pushing me to close it. Wife and I[she's here as well] have been working on an exit strategy since covid hit, the call yesterday came out of the blue. I could walk from the business easier than I can walk from the property that has been my primary hunting grounds for 25 years. The land our son grew up hunting on, he'll be heartbroken even though he has plenty of other places now including his inlaws where he lives. Doing this basically means leaving everything that we've known for the past 25 years from work to play. Total quick upheaval. Head spinning!

Congrats, but why are you waiting that long? Once you decide to go, go. 2 weeks notice hit the road no money in letting them fug with you any longer than that....mb Why the 2 week notice? It's not like he might need to go back to work there.

Very happy for you... Congratulations!
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

So if I move into your neighborhood, be careful where you take pictures. tinyurl.com/mu7v63vy Unlike many areas of Utah.....our winter snow pack was good to us Newly rebuilt reservoir held 94% capacity....most it's ever held ! Having water means owning water shares with your water canal company for irrigation Secondary outside is available in towns and paid with your regular utility bill Available mid April till late September Culinary water ? I pay $17.25 a month for an allotted 10K gallons......I use 3-4K at best Southern Utah ? Depends where ya go.......St George ? crazy busy & trying to build... They mentioned running a pipe line from Lake Powell to St George......ha LOL........Powell is D R Y Go visit the area...Your wife might say.....'This ain't green Oregon' pic our reservoir at 94% in June ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/OYSRgts.jpg)

I can't blame you for trying to move to a more freedom friendly state. You will like retirement, take it from me.

Schittt.
Cut slingload on that Reaford.
Anyone else in the family gonna carry the business after you???
If so give it to them and bail.
If not bail.
You have always been wanting to move to TN time.... Coming down tomorrow night[been over a month]. Been kicking around making an offer on a little lot out by Douglas Lake. 1.5 acre but it is secluded. Haven't had any visible neighbors in 35 years and now I feel that we'd just be damn UN-neighborly if we did.

I'm planning on retiring by the end of this year, Lord willing. Pension is locked in - if I stay longer it won't increase, so after 47 years at the same job it's time to say adios.
