Cheers! Go find a long term project! Build a canoe, boat or flintlock from scratch……

Excellent. Now go do stuff that you enjoy.
If you ever come down my way, the door is always open and the 100yr old Port will be waiting...along with some hunting and fishing.

Re: pulled the pin
Thanks, all. I can't just sit and scratch my butt all day, so I got a part time gig at the gun counter at the new Bass Pro opening in Tucson this spring. Between that and volunteering at U of A and the local animal shelter, I'll be busier than I have ever been. (Zee

Re: pulled the pin
Yeah I tied that for almost 2 years and then my old company and I started talking and bam, I’m back to “work” with a huge smile on my faceScott E. Mayer wrote: ↑Fri Jan 16, 2026 1:55 am Thanks, all.

Hope it works better for you brother. I’m relatively near you and I’m in Phoenix all the time visiting my son and granddaughter. Would love to get together sometime this spring.
Re: pulled the pin
Being in Tuscaloosa, I've got to admit that the first thought to cross my mind when you said "U of A" was, "That's a helluva commute here, just to volunteer"
Then I remembered this isn't the only U of A (Just the best one IMO )

Re: pulled the pin
Congrats, Scott.
I retired as of October 1. I stay busier now than when I was working. Almost 4 months in, I only occasionally forget what day of the week it is.

Re: pulled the pin
Amazing how that works. Don't know how it got anything done when still working. And I never knew working cost so much
