Hope to meet and greet a lot of FT'ers as we kick our leisure travel plans into high-gear...

Retirement for me can be defined very simply:
"Doing What You Want To Do and When/Where/With Whom You Want To Do It".
I found that my business schedule made waaaay too many of these decisions for me up until today.
The rules change starting tomorrow....

But I will agree with your quote in its entirety. Do like the quote of my neighbor though whom retired a few months prior to me even though several years younger - "Found out I was cheating myself while working."
For sure with all this free time are paths are bound to cross.
