Dream, Dream, Dream
Isn’t it fun to day dream? Yesterday on the way home from Fillmore I found myself thinking of what the perfect retirement scenario would be when Lynn finishes his 35 year career with the State next February.
It starts out with us getting a Path Finder to pull the bit little larger trailer we want, and the Prius Lynn wants. Dream on …
It continues with us having good health and joints so we can spend 6 months traveling the country like we want to…
It involves us seeing a lot of our five children, their spouses, and our seventeen grandchildren …
It includes decent gas prices …
It includes seeing a lot of our extended families …
It includes a road trip back east …
Gee, why not include a small little house with a wrap around porch … make that two of them, one here and one in Seattle …
And that is just the first year.
What is more realistic is …
We continue to live in our home and try to catch up on repairs around the house and put in a new yard …
We go camping often in our little trailer pulled by our old van and keep running our Maxima that has $150,000 miles on it …
We make a couple of trips to the Seattle area and spend more time there at a time …
That we spend more time with our families …
Lynn gets a hip and knee replaced …
And that we take advantage of every moment we have together and make it as fun as possible. I can be happy doing anything with Lynn by my side.
