No plans, took the pilot certificates out of my wallet and put with the rest of my memorabilia that is going to be saved for the grandson.

Yeah, I will get it loaded up in the near future.

I already know what you mean. Real busy around here. Since I retired my tractor has run about 14 hours a day between two of working winter food plots. Also getting ready for a Texas Parks & Wildlife sponsored Youth Hunt this weekend on my place.

Congrats!

Do you already know what to do with all that extra time you have now? :D

I very much enjoyed my job as a mechanic and ground support mechanic for the airline I worked for.
Other than the Navy it was the only job I had that I enjoyed going to work.
Did the Military Tech Rep for a while and was gone from home more than while in the Navy.
I do not Miss either of my carriers but I do miss a few of the friends I made along the way.

My advice to RD and anyone else that is retiring is do not even think about it and put as much energy into something else you enjoy doing as you did your job.

I envy you RD on having the ranch and I know it will keep you busy and outside in the sunshine and clean air at least 300 days a year.
Best of luck.

It is just starting. They are showing up now, getting checked in and sighting in their rifles. They will start hunting in the morning. It might be Monday, but I will post a topic with the results.
