So in a sense I don't see this as retirement as much as I see it as changing jobs from something that's slowly killing me to something that I enjoy.




It sounds like you've answered your own question. Do something you want to do instead of doing something you have to do.

You've earned it.



Bob,
are you retired? Seems like I recall you using the term "semi-retired" in the past. Are you using your talent to make money playing music? In your neck of the woods the music you love should be highly marketable. (You're in Huntingdon WV, right?)

As I recall, there's a railroad shop in Huntingdon. Given the enthusiasm for railroad buffs to pursue all things that have to do with the iron horse, you should have all sorts of opportunities where you live. Bluegrass + railroad = natural tie-in
