I guess I could have made plenty of better decisions. I've mainly enjoyed my life, though. (Thank God for some selective memory)

I've worked outdoors for the bulk of my life and, for me, there was no better way. I would have liked to have earned more money to make my playtime more interesting, but I have little to complain about. I have a loving wife and 2 wonderful children who've begun to bless me with grandchildren; so I guess I wouldn't change a thing.

The icing on the cake? I was able to retire to my great neighborhood in The Villages and make some of the best friends I've ever had.
