Congratulations! I've been retired now for 2+ years and it feels great after a certain adjustment period. They're right about the uniform. Although if you are like me (don't be!) at around 1900 hours East coast time I'm sitting in front of the TV watching "COPS" everynight, saying things I shouldn't in front of my 15 year old. Well, maybe a little isn't so bad! Key to retirment is to have a hobby that you'll enjoy for the rest of your life. Sounds like you already have one in your job. Great Deal. Still, stay safe and always watch your back!

Thanks again friends.

I find that the older I get ... I only want to be around cool, hard working people who love this country and will fight to defend her.

I have little tolerance anymore for those who skim off society or BS in general.

I have been forced to eat that sandwich for 20 years ... therefore, I need a change.

I think the new job will allow me the flexibility to use my talents to make a living and still help those who are sending our enemies straight to hell.

So ... life is good.

Congratulations on your retirement. Here are a couple pictures from your soon to be home state. Bring a shovel.

I love SD and would like to live there someday as well.

The Black Hills are probably one of my favorite places to visit...and can you say "STURGIS!"...

Dude you will have a blast--consider getting an RV and using your new home as a "launching point" so much to see and do...I envy you.

Sturgis is fifteen minutes up the road.

Been riding since I was old enough.

Always had at least one scoot in the living room ... draped in lights ... was our Christmas tree.

Plain white trash I tell ya.

Still don't know why TS lets me hang out

LOL that sounds like...trouble. I'd ask if we should start up a collection for bail, but since you're a professional...
