Todd, retirement is good but watch the age, it will come faster.
Now you will have time I have photos of this hotel that was built into the hillside in Apollo, Pa It was well used before it burned several years ago. I think it would look good stuck to one of your hills. I think I could provide some images for printing if you have interest.
I am glad to hear you are pulling the pin. My oldest son just did that too.

Retirement! There goes all the layout work time.
Does your work have someone to advise you on post-retirement benefits?

Charlie,
Yeah, that was one of the reasons I decided to go at 60 rather than 62.... I've seen a whole lot of people wait or plan to wait and suffer the ultimate regret with an untimely demise. That hotel does look interesting... However, I like that as a contributory project for the Wilderson! What do you think of that?
David,
Yeah, I may be overestimating the time available.... There are plenty of advisory retirement planning presentations, and I have been planning pretty hard for the past 10 years, so I'm very confident that my plan should work as long as 1) I don't live past 100, and 2) the world doesn't turn upside down.
