As of TODAY, I am retired!  It's been a long road but looking back it doesn't seem all that long. Now looking forward to some long roads in front of "Woody". 
I'm speeding because I have to get there before I forget where I was going.

Congratulations!
Remember; to WIN the game you have to live at least as many years in retirement as you worked.

I'm envious of you. Don't think it'll happen to me. Enjoy it and keep challenging yourself. 
Cheers, Richard

Thanks and sounds good as long as the glass is full when raised and empty after.

Congrats on your retirement, Larry! So now, ya know, you'll have to find yourself a hobby to help occupy all this free time you'll have from now on. (...oh, wait a minute...I think you already have one o' those, don't ya?!...it's woodworking or somethin' like that, right?!) 
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

Making saw dust is one of them. Not to be forgotten though is putting some miles on Woody.
