No problem!! I have new wheels....will travel. However, after being
up at Pine Needles this week, it's hard to believe there is anything
in Kalona that beats it!

WONDERFUL! I've been saying for years that retirement is what I was
meant to do with my life! :) I like it much better than anything else
I've ever done.

I love hearing that! My aunt said something to me tonight about "when you
get bored." I can't imagine that happening! But then she's 77 and still
working a full-time job - I don't think she'll ever retire.

Oh, Louise, I'm so jealous! I can't wait to retire--hopefully the end of
next year!! Enjoy your retirement!

I have to admit it was a little sooner for me than I had planned or even
hoped, but sometimes things come together when you least expect it. I'll
help you count the days if you'd like!
