I walked out of my office for the last time yesterday - 30 years in the military and 14 years as a DoD civilian.
It feels great, but surreal at the same time.
We're celebrating with a little BBQ fiesta with a couple of friends tomorrow.
Looking forward to enjoying my retirement!

Re: Piney is Officially Retired!
Thanks for all you (and your family, as military families know well) have done for all of us these many years. Fair winds, following seas, and may the road rise to meet you in retirement.
BE WELL, BUT NOT DONE

Re: Piney is Officially Retired!
It does kind of have an effect on you when you contemplate all the hard-earned knowledge you have acquired is now of no value...
As one retiree to another live long and find your passion and enjoy yourself. I have somewhat had a feeling of being lost since I retired, but those around me seem to keep me busy...
