    Awesome, congrats!

    I think I've probably only got about 30 more years. :cry:

    Congrats! I retired almost 2 years ago and bought a bar and grill not too far away from you (Millston). My wife runs the place and I just fix things and be retired. Finally, everyday is Saturday! Good luck.

    Congrats man! Looking forward to the day when I can retire.

    I probably will end up getting a part time job though working second shift in the sporting goods section of a big box store. Love working with people.. Combined that with my love of the outdoors makes for the perfect gig. Will have my mornings to fish and hunt and a little extra change to buy minnows! LOL

    Congrats man, enjoy it. You've been married one year longer than I've been alive.
    I'll get there someday hopefully, I'm getting fairly close, I'm already tired, just need to get the "re" on the front of it.

    Congrats!! Let me know when you quit smiling. I don't expect I'll hear from you soon. :biggrin: I retired last June and still can't wipe this grin off my face.

    I retired 10 years ago. Set a target for each year and do it. Took up bow hunting last year. You are never too old !

    Enjoy it.
