Getting Closer
Yesterday morning, my countdown to retirement counter ticked through a pretty good poker hand - five fours . . .
I won’t miss working, the traffic, the politics, the crime rate or teh stoopids in my native state, California, but I will miss the seashore and the family. But then, I can always come and visit them a couple of times a year.
Oh yeah - I almost forgot (NOT) - I won’t miss the worst gun laws in the US.

Where are you going after you leave?

Arizona, maybe. One of the four corner states for sure. Or Nevada. Still shopping ideas with the Better Half who was born in Arizona.

not as green, but definitely more open

My sister thinks she’s going to Tennessee - as the old Ballad of Davy Crockett said, ‘Greenest State in the Land of the Free.’
Of course the person who wrote that was never on the Olympic Peninsula, I’m guessing.
