Most Wanted Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Congrats. Enjoy the free time , it should last about two weeks. My father in law retired a few years back and now he wouldn't have time for a full time job if he wanted it. Any big plans you've been holding onto for this time?

Tn Tombstone Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Congratulations Widder, I am jealous and very proud to call you a friend. I am sure Lady T will be glad to help you set up an email account, if you have a smart phone you probably already have one and just don't know it.

Filthy Harry, SASS #24924 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Congrats, I pulled the plug last May and am just getting back to shooting regularly. I had to work Saturdays, so my local clubs 2 monthly matches were a mile away and I drove by them to get to work. Retirement is better. Enjoy, enjoy.

Blackey Cole Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Retirement means changes I retired 1mar 2002 from the usaf and it was my only retirement as I had several aliments that prevented a second career. I learned that you don't have to leave the homestead everyday that if you slow down on the miles driven a month, cut out the daily lunches out, and the clothes needed for work that retirement can be very inexpensive. Then I found CAS and the costs went up eventually I aquired more than enough guns to shoot any category in sass that the wilm would hit me. Then it just the ammo and match fees plus transportation costs. Wider you are ahead of me there. You've got the guns, you know about the ammo and match expenses. You also have your sideline income and if you wanted you could make the matches a business expense for taxes. Welcome to the do what you want crowd.

Keystone, SASS # 47578 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Congratulations to one grand Pard!Widder and I have been having lunch together for over 10 1/2 years. We've spent many hours discussing the ins & outs of SASS,CAS, speed shooting the '97 and the operation of the Marlin rifle. Lunch time won't be the same without Widder, I'll surely miss him. We had our last at work lunch together today at Calhoun's on the River. Best wishes pard for a rewarding & pleasurable retirement.Vaya con Dios,Keystone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
