training - the last day

The day is done, the race was fun....It's over.  Cindi is trained, as much as I can do, and more than ready to take over my position, so I retired today!  I was taken to a lovely lunch, many nice things were said about me, I was given German chocolate cake, I went out with friends for a very fine dinner and a glass of wine.  I received funny cards and gifts, and capped off the evening by attending a concert.  The St. Olaf Choir is simply amazing.  All in all it was a lovely day. If I had known how much fun retiring is I might have done it long ago.  Oh wait, I did.  This is my second (and last) retirement.
