Altair19-

...I'll focus on working with architects on a campus master plan, technology integration,
some benchmarking on some issues important to the school, little executive consulting
with the head of school, plus some coaching.
...Ich bin ein retiree.

it sounds to me like you are a SEMI-retiree... there's still one more step to full retirement.
it is good to do it in steps... less change-stress to the system if you ease into it.

your plan sounds great.

Amateur Senior Golf
perfect! the purpose of life is SPORTS... always has been... always will be.

Music - playing with a band...guitar
perfect! the UNIVERSAL language is MUSIC... always has been... always will be.

Writing something about the "Social Impact" of Digital Equipment Corp.
perfect! write it in the key of E major for guitar. don't worry about the lyrics,
they're not important right now.

Time to travel with the bride and see grandchildren
perfect! you can bring A20 to san francisco for the next NNBM reunion.
there will be plenty of GRAND children there... especially if clappie, polvie
rhozita and wharfie come. they will need someone like you to drive the rental car
back to the houseboat in sausalito at night.

may you stay forever young...

A19er,

Sounds like a good plan.

I would love to read the Digital Equipment stuff when it is posted.

Anyhow with all the retirees around here, I imagine the NNBM Bar will be having some pretty good Early Bird Specials...
:)

Or maybe not.

Hoser is busy flying egg beaters.
Warfy is busy making the earth green again.
A19er is busy with his one sheeter.
LePolv is busy sailing his two sheeter.

Anyhow, JPG, Scoot, and I will keep working so you guys have some Soc Sec left to dip into.

With all your free time, I would love to see what sort of advice all of you would have to a 46 year old with kids getting closer to college, the economy sort of sh!tting itself, and how to afford all this family stuff, and still hope to retire some day...

I cannot fathom how this will ever happen.
