I do not fit the semi retired title. My hobbies are all part time. My layout is 44 years old and only been an active hobby for a few weeks a year most of the time. OGR forum, during retirement from my work career, has made me more active than before but not too much.
My vintage audio and work shop are other part time hobbies. Vintage audio got kicked up to active part time yesterday when I found a poor shape Pioneer SX-650 receiver in a neighbors trash after the two trash collecting trucks both passed on it. I did enough testing to find out it works and can be easily fixed up for a college grand daughter who recently discovered vinyl.
Have given up on boating and water skiing and sold the boat about 10 years ago. But my son in-law has bought a boat and a lake house so we are back into boating and skiing and now jet skies part time with the wife and me mostly boat riding and watching.

Don't let me get the last word again.
