Dear Ham:

You've told me more than once about how I earned my retirement and that I should enjoy it to the fullest.  You were right.  Now it's time for you to follow your own advice.  You're smart enough that I do not doubt that you will.  I wish you and your family the absolute very best for every day in every way.

I trust you remember that we met at Jigfest # 1.  I'll never forget it.  Wrecked shoulder, no hat without Quillback's most welcome assistance and Fat Bastard dancing around on the deck. 🤪 

Is there any way you can show up this year?  Same time, same place.  

Your Friend, 

Rick

ouch!

Hey wait a minute I call you that with 100% love.  It's a great character and a complementary nickname.  But if it bothers you, no more buddy.

The first Jigfest I went to, you and Rick had some hilarious back and forth banter.  I remember when Rick was scooting across the floor in his chair and you asked him - "Is that your walker?".  One of those you had to be there deals, but it was hilarious and I'll always remember it when I see you two together.

It's when your friends are giving you smack and a ration of crap you know they like you. 

   I never worry until that back and forth banter stops. It's then that something is wrong and you need to start worrying.

Congratulations ! 

I feel like I have a 100 years before I can think about retiring.
