I retired at 60 1/2. Carpenter for 43 years. In December of 09 boss told me he only had 2 jobs on the books the one I was on and one that wouldn't start till August.
Desided it was time to put the tools away. Put in for my retirement let the young guys fight for the jobs.
Retired March 1st. Bought a used,5th wheel the 19 March and hit the road April 19.
We,DW and I now have 6000 hours each volunteering with USFWS,USFS,USACE and a couple state parks.
Can't think of a better way to spend our retirement.
