You thought he had made some more bows didn"t you? I just wanted to wish Roy a very very happy retirement. I believe next Friday will be his last official work day. Congrats Roy. I wish you the best and most of all, enjoy your freedom.
The one down fall to all this guys and girls, is that we will be seeing more of him on her and other sights. I not sure any of us are up for that...phew. :laughing: :dunno:

I'm like Kenny I'll be working till the day they close the casket lid!

Thanks Justin.
Guys, I feel happy about this, but I also feel sad at the same time. For 44.5 years I've been working with many people, who have become my friends. I won't miss the job, but I'll miss the friends I've made. My job was very stressful to me, especially as I grew older. Dealing with the public, dealing with a high volume of traffic, dealing with the politics, dealing with new equipment and the software to run it. I just found myself wanting to get away from it all. Put me on my tractor cutting grass, tilling, planting corn, planting gardens, working in the bow shop, camping at Trad shoots, or fishing at our pond and I'm one happy camper.
So away I go to the Happy Land tomorrow. And watch your mouth Sister McKenzie... LOL
Guys, I feel happy about this, but I also feel sad at the same time. For 44.5 years I've been working with many people, who have become my friends. I won't miss the job, but I'll miss the friends I've made. My job was very stressful to me, especially as I grew older. Dealing with the public, dealing with a high volume of traffic, dealing with the politics, dealing with new equipment and the software to run it. I just found myself wanting to get away from it all. Put me on my tractor cutting grass, tilling, planting corn, planting gardens, working in the bow shop, camping at Trad shoots, or fishing at our pond and I'm one happy camper.
So away I go to the Happy Land tomorrow. And watch your mouth Sister McKenzie... LOL

Glad to hear that you made it Roy. But now that you have all that extra time on your hands, I'm thinking you could start a Tillering Help Hotline. When I work second shift I usually have all kinds of tillering problems around 2 or 3 a.m. Whatcha think?
