from the AF. I took 60 days terminal leave and stayed at home, in Florida, resting and decompressing. After about 60 days, I took a job with the VA in California. I didn't like it so I permanently retired at age 54 in 2004 and I move to the San Diego area where I owned a condo. I became active in my local Democratic Club, work the polls during elections, joined two bowling leagues, became the president of my HOA for 17 years, and started checking books out of the library. Now, I mainly bowl and read books.
