I worked my last last night and signed off for the very last time after 25 years.  My God-son Talked me into going fishing this morning on zero sleep and when he pulled up at the park and ride I got the surprise of my life.  His Dad, my best friend of 30 years had flown all the way from Ohio to spend a couple of days with us.  To top it off, I caught a good one. This is how I wanted to start my retirement. I'm the one holding the bass.

First off - Nice Bass & Great Pic !

 Secondly ~ "Congratulations" which is a common response I got when I retired.  

Although I appreciated the support, I didn't completely get the sentiment.

That is, until I lived it for a while.  After which, I can easily understand why it is most appropriate.

I think you are going to love being on "Doug Time".  

 

So Congrats again my friend.

You're certainly earned it.

As others have said, Congrats!

 

Truth be told, I have no idea how I ever found time to work! Lots of naps too.

 

God Bless you, enjoy life!
