Brad Retired

---

Well we've hit the road at last! We have been living fulltime in our Carriage CarriLite 5th wheel for the last year+ waiting for Brad to retire from the FAA as an Air Traffic Controller and on August 28th his 25 year career ended. We are launching tomorrow to travel the states and get to know our country. We look forward to hiking, biking, fishing, hunting, making new friends & seeing old friends and family along the way!

Jim & Janet Wood
Our neighbors and good friends, we will miss the fun times but look forward to seeing them next spring. Jim was a wealth of knowledge to us being a fulltimer for 15 years himself, there was never a question that he couldn't answer. Jan's garden was a delight on many an evening that we sat out together.

Our first night out, we stayed right across the street from the Peppermill Casino where we played video poker for free beer.

Storm clouds gathering..
We watched the thunder clouds before us in the distance but stayed dry...until we reached Battle Mountain and it poured rain as Brad set up for the night!
