Greetings from KingB of Henderson

I will be taking an early retirement (<63 y.o.) at the end of this month. And wife will follow in a couple of months or so and as we are all new to this change, we have a lot of questions that hopefully are already answered on the forums.

Someone else on the board is from McCarran, I think. Can't remember who offhand.

Hello

Beware the honey-do list until DW retires.

Congratulations

I finally did it. Jan 31 was my last day at work. Cake and juices, retirement cards, $200 on gift cards, box of promo shirts, speeches, etc. Most of last week and today, I have been taken to lunches. I will miss these people. I now qualify to be a member of the class of 2011.
