Free
Well, the day is here. My hitch with the aerospace mill is finally over and I am officially retired. I played the “Get out of Jail Free” card today and it feels great.
The pre-retirement kabuki took some figuring and planning, but it’s all done and now we can relax and enjoy. We’ve already applied for the Better Half’s NRA Life Membership (mine has been effect for a couple of years already). We’re not going to significantly add to the arsenal until such time as we’re relocated to outside of California, obviously because of the bullshit gun and ammunition restrictions in La La Land.
Maybe the ultimate “Get out of Jail Free” is to put the formerly Golden State, and the shithole it has become, behind us once and for all.

Congrats! I know you’ve been looking forward to this day for quite some time, and I wish you well.
We just *gotta* hook up at the range before you guys leave.

Congratulations! Being free of the gerbil wheel is the first step… now you just have to get out of the cage ;).

Thanks, guys. I appreciate the wishes.
We made the first steps today for cleaning out some of our ’stuff’ so we can figure out how to get out of the ‘cage.’
I’m sure we’ll all cross paths one of these days. We already saw DirtCrashr at GBR-IV and look forward to the next encounters.
