Taking life easy and traveling around the USA with my wife of 53 years. She retired from teaching in 2008 with 44 years teaching service, most of it 2nd grade. I retired from the Accounting field on December 31, 2007 and I work occasionally one to two days per month as an consultant in the Accounting field (busy work) and do some tax returns for friends during tax season!

Life has been good to both of us, we both have had some health problems, but we all do at our age, I think!!!!!
NO MORE TAX WORK for ME, I'm fully retired now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
