5 more "get ups" - 10/20/23 07:23 PM

After next Fri I will be on vacation until Jan 1. Then I will be officially retired.
I am so ready to be out of the factory life.
Got my normal ohio trapline planned and about 95 percent done on a out of state line lined up.
Big life changes I am in need of.
Stress at work is kicking my butt. Gotta leave that behind.

If all goes well I'll post pictures late winter as where we (wife and i) are heading there is pretty much no cell service.

Do you plan on catching even more mink than the remarkable numbers you have caught in recent years?

I hope you have a long and enjoyable retirement.

I still have my ohio line.
The out of state line will be primarily beaver and otter and hopefully a bobcat or 2.

I assume a voluntary "get-up" is to a civilian what a "wake-up" is to the military.

Congratulations on the retirement. But, I urge you to stay active, retirement has been a death sentence for many

Oh I'll stay active. There is so much I have been putting off because of work. Now it's my turn.
