Do you have a "retirement toy" ?

Did you get a "retirement toy"? Or, do you have time to play with your "toys" now that you are retired?

I haven't retired yet, however I am working less and playing more. My retirement "toy" is a SLK 280 convertible I got to drive on the hard packed sands of Daytona Beach. Then I sold the Daytona condo. Still, it's a great ride. And a great toy.

I know many of CHS '60 classmates have been hit by the downturn in the economy. But, I know many, like me, bought their "toys" before the current "doom and gloom" economy. So, I asked Juanita to email the class and have them send me some pics of their favorites. Some did. Most didn't.

Maybe they're like me. Haven't retired yet. No time for "toys". Or maybe it's as simple as not being able to figure out how to email a picture.

Anyway, if you have a "toy" (it doesn't have to be expensive to be fun) how about emailing a picture to NormanRMiller@yahoo.com and I will share it with the class. If you can't figure out how to send that pic, email me a story about your toy and I'll post it on the blog.
