Hi Doc & All,
I've decided to work a couple of more years. You might ask the reason? Well, in the last couple of years I have lost some benefits because the position I hold is not protected by the union. If I retire now, a younger guy will be forced to move up and loose ~12K each. So much for being a loyal employee for 33 years. No !
So that all means no tractor right now. I am getting ready though! We bought an additional 6.8 acres adjacent to what we now own and made arrangements with the former owner to keep it mowed for the hay.
I haven't totally abandoned the group though. I have, on occasion, taken the time to lurk (at least that is what we used to call it!)
Getting ready for Christmas and hopin' for snow!!
Merry Christmas to All!
Be Safe,
Pompier
