Not much to tell. After working for 3 companies over 43+ years (38 years 7 months with my last company), I finally got that promotion I waited my entire career for……retirement.
I have been exploring this new career for the past 9 years and while it is not always exciting, the chance to do what I want for myself and my family instead of what my company wants for the company has been very fulfilling.
While I still miss the social aspect of working with a team of great people, I have managed to keep in touch with my former team and I have many friends and family members who now fulfill this part of my life.
I enjoy photography, gardening, working with my hands, walking, cycling, skiing, travelling, reading and creating special photo and video productions obtained in my first pastime. I will likely never become wealthy in any of these pursuits, but I already feel I am rich in life experiences far beyond any expectation.
