    Default It is official


    I am retired. Turned in my badge, slide rule, and pocket protector yesterday. I have no job to go to for the first time in 36 years. Below is a photo of me when I was about 5 years old. Was I destined to be an engineer geek or what?

    You make the call.
    I have enjoyed my carrer in engineering. I got offers to return as a contractor and work part time for some projects at my retirement lunch yesterday. That is something I will have to think about so I can have minnow money in my pocket.

    Good for you. I think I would pass on the part time job and just enjoy being retired unless you can pick your days to work so they don't interfere with fishing.

    Congratulations, Keith! Now, when the alarm goes off, you will check the weather report instead of the traffic report!! That part takes adjustment, but you can handle it.

    And the time will come when someone asks what day is today and you will have absolutely no idea.
