    Woot! Woot!

    I'm betting your retirement, your big move, and your return to good health are the best possible combination. It sounds lovely.

    Congratulations, Ron!

    Congrats, enjoy retirement. I hope to get there some day. I have always said that I don't know if I will ever fully retire. I just like having a purpose to get up and out. I personally can be very lazy and introverted when not made to not be.

    Ron, congrats on all your successes! I'm kind of looking forward to retirement too, but I love my job for the time being and will stay for a while. I want to retire while I still feel well enough to do some things I've been wanting to do since surgery, i.e., travel to an island and a dessert (never been to either place), zipline, hike, and just generally get up and do what I want to do. This being said, I get scared that I'll be bored and eat my way through the retirement, have to make sure that doesn't happen though

    Enjoy!!
