Wow, retirement. What can I say? Closest thing that I got to a retirement speech was when I left the Army in Germany decades back. The youngsters expected me to blast the brass, but I didn't. What I did was to look around at all of those faces which prompted some memories, many fond, and I chuckled and recounted "the time that...and I..." for those whom didn't know about the times that...

No matter what you write, a look at those faces will alter what ever you write or plan. Good Luck, and I don't expect your retirement from YT - you're a helpful person, gave me ideas about raizing the concrete foundation on the new barn, and after this holiday weekend I'm sure that I'll have some bitches and questions about what I did wrong sinking all of those railroad tie fences posts. Nope, I don't expect you to retire from YT. Hey, if you run into George Sr. and Barbara, tell 'em I aint forgot them, just too busy to go fishin right now. Mark, as well.
