First retirement was in 2006 after 31.5 years of teaching farm management at a technical College
Second retirement came in 2013 after 5.5 years as an Ag Extension Educator worked 50-80%
Now I am coordinating our WTA/DNR trapper ed program. I will be retiring from that in 2019
Probably will look for something with regular schedule hours part-time to provide my goof off funds
Pension started in 2006
SS started in 2013

Timber faller. Line hand for electric utility.

The light at the end of the tunnel is probably a train so I don’t even think about retirement yet.

I spent 6 years in the Navy working on computers that calculate fire control solutions for launching missiles on guided missile destroyers. Then I spent the last 5 years going to school and while working at Cabelas to pay the bills. Monday I start the training on my new job as a Conservation Officer.

Congrats on the new career! You will see the good, the bad, and the ugly dealing with people and wildlife & fish.

Mason for 43 years! My back is about shot.


I have a friend that's a mason. Tough, wear-you-out gig. I hope retirement treats you well when you can do it!
