"Take this Job and Shove It" - Big Changes Ahead!

Enjoy.
I came to the conclusion that most meetings were for the benefit of those who did not know what was going on so they could pretend to know what was going on.

After we were full-timing for two years, the doc told us to stay out there as our health actually improved ... some of our stress was from social clubs and being involved as officers.

Now we volunteer and enjoying the variety and also the new history we are learning and enjoy learning more about the history of our country .. we will spend the Fall on the Oregon Coast, then to Ft. Yamhill to learn the history of that area also ... have already volunteered at Ft. Clatsop so will be interesting to intersperse the two histories.

Have crossed the states once, and hope to do it again this next year 2014 .. hoping to see friends we have made over the years who are in the mid-west ..

Enjoy your lives .. Stay Safe Out There

My wife was a nurse for 34 years. The last 10 she was a hospice nurse. After seeing so many people younger than she die, and so many dreams unrealized because they grew old or got sick, she decided to retire early so we could get the show on the road.

I visited inpatient hospice with my pet therapy dog every week. I was the only one that would make the drive. At the time, I was 46 and I would visit patients younger than I that were in the last few days of their life. I would cry all the way home most every day. I told my better half that we needed to get on the road as soon as possible, as life is way too short.

76 More Working Days!!! Getting real serious now. Went out and bought a new F350 diesel tow vehicle last weekend. Putting in the fifth wheel hitch today. It doesn't seem real and the final days of work are dragging by.

76 More Working Days!!! Getting real serious now. Went out and bought a new F350 diesel tow vehicle last weekend. Putting in the fifth wheel hitch today. It doesn't seem real and the final days of work are dragging by.

My wife and I can't WAIT! Congratulations!!!

I retired very very early and we almost decided to go on the road then w/ our two kids for a year. Then I came out of retirement and went back on the job in another state.

Life on the road will have to wait for us for several more years.

GO FORTH AND ENJOY!!!!!
