I passed my 2000th post a copule of days ago. I was thinking about making these thoughts for my 2000th post but it got by me. I joined this forum in Oct 2003 and like many others I did so because I was unsure of my ability to ER at what became 52. The replies to my questions were generally helpful and considerate; made me think and it was good to know others had the same concerns. I greatly appreciated them.

This was my first post and Cut-Throat comment about "About Schmidt" got me to see the movie - it was scary. It still is. I have a ways to go.
I also appreciate the people on this form because of the diverse subjects raised and the various points of view presented. It is not like a “Frugal Forum” where you get a set mindset.
What I do find missing on this forum are the inspiritional, challeneges and/or phases of ER.
I don't have an idea on what to do about my comments but they make the board less interesting to me.

I'm in Moab, Ut. and will be here for awhile biking and hiking in the area. The sun is setting, I have a beer; it is beautiful; life is good.. In this RV park there are big rigs ($250K+) to tent campers. The gas plentyful, food stores stocked with every conceiveable fresh fruit, beer wine and nationality of food. The roads are smooth and safe. The people are friendly, we speak the same language, I pay the posted prices, I can go where ever I want and feel safe. Why say the ovious? Because in many parts of this world these things we take for granted are not the norm. I love this country.
