Experimenting with retirement

I know I’ve said this all before but yesterday went by in a flash. We worked out, had a huge breakfast cooked by the big guy, then hit Yachats Library to return some books followed by a coffee at the Green Salmon. Hey – they make absolutely the best coffee on the coast never mind their baked goods, but we were so full from breakfast not even the Maple Walnut Danish looked particularly enticing.

After a leisurely hour spent people watching, we took a long walk on the beach at Governor Patterson Park just South of Waldport. Although the usual morning clouds made it kind of a moody, windy walk not even Max could complain about overcrowding. It is absolutely glorious! Yes that's the Maxer dawg and yours truly. We love this uncrowded place and dream of a house overlooking this beach, but alas even with the economic downturn, we'd have to rob a trillion banks to afford it. The good news is we can all use the beach for free! Bonus eh!

As for dinner, I’ve nothing to report because we didn’t have one – we ate a late lunch of chili dogs, chips and salsa after our two hour nap and we weren’t hungry for dinner.  Even people that live to eat have to draw the line sometimes.

But we have to be honest - we may not have had dinner but we did have an adult beverage or two. :-)

Big guy = big mouth. Now everybody knows our secret!

Nice - looks like you are ready for retirement! Max has settled right in for sure! The way you three fill in your days while on vacation - I have no doubt that you are ready for retirement - no doubt at all! You guys def. know what to do with it!
