Grab your bear can or camp chair, kick your feet up and chew the fat about anything Sierra Nevada related that doesn't quite fit in any of the other forums. Within reason, (and the HST rules and guidelines) this is also an anything goes forum. Tell stories, discuss wilderness issues, music, or whatever else the High Sierra stirs up in your mind.
We have awaited this day in anticipation, (and maybe a small amount of trepidation ).
Patty and I are officially retired. Ready to begin the next phase in our journey and eagerly looking forward to our next ‘career’ as Post Employment Recreation and Leisure Specialists, with ancillary duties as Inter-Generational Progeny Indulgent Managers.
Wish us well, or envy, or sympathy, or ???

Log off and get outdoors!

Congratulations!!! Wishing you many years of enjoying it together.
"On this proud and beautiful mountain we have lived hours of fraternal, warm and exalting nobility. Here for a few days we have ceased to be slaves and have really been men. It is hard to return to servitude."
-- Lionel Terray
Congratulations! My wife and I retired about a year ago. We timed it so that we went out on the same day
Inter generational progeny indulgent manager.....I love it !!!!
Good for both of you! Not sure that elderly applies, though. Hope you enjoy retirement as much as kathy and I do. talk about indulgence Kathy just decided we had to have a travel trailer big enough for at least 1 grandchild. But it also had to have an outside shower. Guess why?
youngest grandson has a habit of getting dirty when the weather is warm

Who can't do everything he used to and what he can do takes a hell of a lot longer!

When I was young, I got in trouble for playing in the mud. In my 20's, I got paid for it.
If you don't know where you're going, then any path will get you there.
Just finished completing all the required paperwork...hot damn! Guess now I am officially old.
Don't really feel any different though...still expecting 3 months of typical Sierra shenanigans just ahead.
See you on the trails!
