The Next Big Step

I have applied for an MD-88 mechanic position back in MSP. I have mixed emotions because I really love my Instructor job and I will REALLY miss the gypsy life I have been living for the last 20+ years. On the GOOD side is it will save me about 800.00 bucks a month and I can finally buy a new engine for me & Katies Aeronca Champ and maybe - just maybe start on another aeroplane project in the shop. I have limited time to get things done - I'm down to just a bit over 2 years before retirement - and it goes FAST.

I am torn over our retirement plans. I don't want to sell our home and shop but I really don't see how not too in order to do all the things we want to do in retirement. At the moment we're still sticking with the plan we dreamed many decades ago - sell house, buy motorhome and travel till we die. Of course we have added - hooking up our motorcycle trailer on the back and dragging them along with us. We'll see - we will remain flexable in our plans. Over & Out!
