Retired ?

Retired from the Army in August 1995 and from the corporate world in January 2008. Although I never looked back, I still miss being around those wonderful American soldiers.

Just the view from my retired foxhole...
 
Pony tail! Lol. I was in a Band, livin the life. 100w Stack of Marshall’s, Les Paul and a Triumph. Life was good.

I my own mind! Lol. Here is a pix of when we played a concert with Manfred Mann at the Mishler Theater in Altoona, Pa. up in your neck of the woods. We were a College Frat Band. Penn State and U of Md.were my favorite places to play, parties right out of the movie Animal House from the chicken wire in front of the stage, in West Virginia to Toga parties at PSU! 586CE037-7B7F-4A28-81AF-D74AA4CD7EB7.webp Now just a grey haired old fart!

If you played with Manfren Mann that's really cool!
 
One of my biggest thrills back then was when Steppenwolf rented our PA and lights. Our Drummer ran the lights and I ran the board. That was a magic carpet ride night to remember.

I worked for the same company for 40 years and retired last February at 59. Since then I've been promoted to head cook and dish washer by the wife. Also keep myself occupied with a few hobbies.I'm gearing up for making maple syrup at the moment. I have 70 trees tapped and hope to be running the evaporator next week.

Now that is cool.
 
Retired to me just means buying a new set for the truck, and apparently will mean that for a loooong time. There is hope, as longevity runs in the family. I had an uncle that lived to 105.
