May 2nd – 1 year ago I retired – what a ride!!

It dawned on  me yesterday that today I will be retired 1 year. I cannot believe all that has happened and where we find ourselves. The old adage comes to mind “if we had known it would be this good, we would have done it sooner!”

You have seen our year in pictures and I am posting some pics from today. This is  what my life looks like and I could not be happier

For anyone contemplating retirement – don’t delay – do it. For anyone not quite there – you will get there.  For anyone not nearly ready – you can come and stay with us and, at the very least,  pretend for a few days!!

Off to play in the woods. Have a great Spring weekend wherever you are.                  Jane
