Tiago said... I'll subscribe all of the above statements. Although my visits have been more sporadic, I did enjoy reading most of the correspondence In reading sessions. Have you considered published in book format? By explaining part of the journey that has led you to this point, it would be a great tribute.
Best regards, may retirement bring you the best!

A book is certainly on the way. Final negotiations are taking place. Great news! BL

Do some bushwalking while you're here as well if you can. There's several places in Wellington you can wander around that only take a couple of hours.

Congratulations, and have a ball. I get the feeling that the teaching profession has lost a good 'un.
Just turned 60 myself a few weeks ago, and wondering when to pull the plug between now and 65. Tough call, but for the moment I'm still enjoying myself.

I decided that it was the right time - just because I WAS still enjoying it and felt that I was still good at the job. Then, the trip came about.... a "no brainer" as they say! BL

Blogger John said...Congratulations on your retirement. I have thoroughly the blog for the last several months since I discovered it. I anxiously check my RSS reader every morning hoping for a post. History is a passion of mine and I think there is no better way to learn about history than from the people who were actually there. Your blog is an asset to anyone interested in history.
I pray for a safe journey for you on your much deserved trip.
Thank you again for the blog.-John Nall
