I'm with you Eddie -- 96 Day's to go and I'm ready for the York meet, October, 2017.

Between now and then we can argue, debate, dispute (pick your own word) allowing non-members into the meet; what will be new; how allowing non-members into the meet impacts the number of people who renew their TCA membership (I just renewed mine); what will be on the cover of the next MTH catalog, and all sorts of other interesting things. And then we can go to York, meet & greet friends, hunt for that elusive bargain, find something to complain about and then start the process all over again.

How's this? Retirement in 146 98 87 81 75 63 more working days. Hopefully, this will be the last October York that I miss...

I am going to try to make it on Friday. Depends now on a piece of equipment being repaired and running between now and then.   We'll see. Turned 60 on 8/21. I'm Teflon and bullet proof.

Found out today that I'm on call. I can take vacation day, but can't leave the area. See you guys in April!!!

Thanks, Eddie!

I'm chomping at the bit already. Only saw about 2 hours of York last year because of health issues. Now I'm back and rearing to go! Bringing a friend for his 1st York on Thursday, and grandson for his 5th on Friday.

Having some cash to spend would be nice, but I can't wait to see everybody again, along with the first timers face when he sees the vastness of York!

Where I work, the folks who have less than a year until retirement are out sick a lot.  Just sayin'...

The year before I retired, I worked my a.. off. I found out they needed 2 people to replace me. I've now been retired for 21 years. The first 4 years I did volunteer work, but quit that as well. A person with hobbies and interests, reasonably good health, and enough income can have a great time. So far, I have been very lucky.

I'm 70 and still working and still volunteer at the VA Hospital.

You guys seem to have missed my point.

I didn't say that the guys nearing retirement WERE sick a lot.  I said that they were OUT sick from work.  To clarify further, they called in sick even though they weren't actually sick.

It's looking like I'm going to miss October's Meet. It will be just a couple weeks after our move, there will be too much to do. Add that I'll go from a 75 minute drive to a five hour plane ride to get to York making it a bit daunting to get there so soon after the move.  April will be more likely. 

But I never say never! 

Where are you moving to?
