By retiring I mean I'll be doing something I enjoy for money and living a life of leisure. Living in the Pike National Forest will just fuel my appreciation for traditional bows and I get to tramp around in the woods too. I already have friends there. It's time to live the GOOD life.

Go and visit a buddy and come home with a job and place to live in Gods country. Does it get better? Friends are a good thing.  

I'm very happy for you! Enjoy your new blessings.

Accolades to you and best of wishes, make the very best of it.  

I wish I had the the same situation but it  is good to hear from the someone more fortunate...

Tear it up and have a blast brother, I am so excited for you.

Oops...wish my sentences were better,  but you get the drift.   :rolleyes:

Blessings they are.    :D

Leisure isn't all it is cracked up to be. But a good rest here and there is good for the soul. Hope you enjoy it and keep us all updated.

good for you!!  It takes courage to make a change like that. i did a couple of years ago and never regret it a moment. Enjoy those wonderful mountains and forests. Take your bow and pack and dont look back

Where in the Pike NF are you moving? Beautiful country there.

You won't regret it.

I did the same thing when I was in my early twenties. Got sick of Nebraska and whitetails. Pretty much threw a dart at a Wyoming map. Landed on Sheridan. Quit my job, took everything that would fit in my truck and trailer, left the rest. Found a place a live, and found a job within a week. I have been in southern Wyo now for the last ten years working as a fed coyote hunter. I am fortunate.

I wish you the best.

                       

         
Enjoy.

Need a room mate?  Oh, I got a wife and two kids so make that three room mates.  :D  

Sound great.  I should have done it years ago.

Don't know if you fish, but that's some of the best fishing in the state. Welcome to Colorado!

Congrats and good luck.

I'm doing the same thing in a couple of months. We are moving to Fredericksburg, Texas. We'll be helping out on the Critter Lake Wildlife Ranch.

Got to love how life turns out at times...

Enjoy and my the Good Lord Blees you always...

I envy you but shouldn't. I'm still in Nebraska to stay. As we get older our dreams are still real, but we tend to compromise.

You won't be sorry bro. Life on earth is short enjoy it brother
