Retirement thoughts

Today is officially my first day of retirement - had my party and exit interview yesterday and turned in all my stuff. My team took very good care of me and I feel well acknowledged by all. Kind of amazing to think back to the beginning - young chemical engineer making $900/month but king of the world!
A great trip so far, with lots left.

As my mind opens to opportunities, many ideas of projects flow in - making a list and evaluating what to do next. The first thing is to get out fishing, standing in the water in the wilds will clear my mind and soul. Then.... who knows?

The picture for this entry was thoughtfully considered - the one I chose represents to me the next life as envisioned by Murphy!

Let's Go, DAD!
