Such a glorious day deserved a glorious ending and the evening sunset did not disappoint. This time, instead of sea birds, a fishing boat provided the required prop for my photos.
Not much to tell. After working for 3 companies over 43+ years (38 years 7 months with my last company), I finally got that promotion I had waited my entire career for……retirement.
I have been exploring this new career for the past 7+ years and while it is not always exciting, the chance to do what I want for myself and my family instead of what my company wants has been very fulfilling. Early on, there was a long list of projects in my “to-do” hopper and I attacked these projects with a vengeance for the first 9 months of retirement. Eventually, my brain told me that this was not what retirement was about, so it took me another 5 months before my industriousness again took over and I attacked another line of projects, this time somewhat shorter and less complicated, as well as many new projects related to the family weddings in 2016. After going hard for 6 weeks and 3 weddings, my body was telling me to relax, then the flu bug hit and as soon as that was done with me, my sciatic acted up. No rest for the wicked. In 2020 and 2021, the Covid 19 pandemic changed the whole retirement gig. I was lucky to not be still working, for sure.
I enjoy photography, gardening, working with my hands, walking, cycling, skiing, travelling, reading and creating special photo and video productions obtained in my first pastime. I may never become wealthy in any of these pursuits, but I already feel I am rich in life experiences far beyond any expectation.

Who doesn’t love watching a sunset? Whether you are on the top of a mountain or relaxing at one of the most beautiful beaches, sunset is the dance of colours on the canvas of the sky. Thanks for sharing and have a good day 🙂 Aiva xx
We only have to pause long enough from the day to enjoy nature’s display. That was a very peaceful ending to an energetic day. Thanks for reading Aiva. Have a great Saturday. Allan
I knew I should have waited for the little green men to climb out….or were those just spots in front of my eyes. Thanks for reading and commenting Leighton. Allan

The sun “peeking” shot is splendorous Allan, it almost looks like a hovering spacecraft.
