Title: Retirement - FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post by: Bob Zambelli on March 27, 2008, 09:31:46 AM
Well, here’s the story.
My official retirement date is April 30th, after which I will become a full time resident of Manning, SC.  #^ #^

My first chore will be to set up my workshop in the garage. This will be a bit of a task as I have a small machine shop, just for hobby use and general tinkering. I will also install a lift but in the hangar, not the garage, as the ceiling is too low.  ::)

Mixed in will be all the usual “new house” doings – building a deck, interior decorating, landscaping and the like. I also have to create a workshop in the finished room above the garage, this being for doing model airplanes.

Of course, through all of this, I would welcome any visitors. Just contact me by e-mail (rzambelli@moog.com) and I will give you all the contact info you need.

Can you bring a C/L plane to fly? ABSOLUTELY!! I have room for around 50 circles so we can take our pick.  LL~ LL~ LL~

From I-95 exit 115 in SC, my house is 1.8 miles northeast on Rt. 301 (Alex Parvin Highway) in the Palmetto Air Plantation.

If you drive, I will come and open the gate.
If you fly in, the identifier is SC41.
N33.39.97, W80.14.63, on the Charlotte sectional.
You can get more navigational info at <palmettoairplantation.com>. I am at 1036 Jonte Lane, a cul-de-sac off the west taxiway.

Hoping to see many of you!!!

Bob Z.

Oh, I'll definitely be at Brodak's - A week ahead of time. We have lots to do this year.
Also, we're expecting quite a few more entrants than any previous Fly-In.

I heard that the problem with retirement is you can't take any time off!!!

Bob:

Welcome to the world of retirement.  I retired last June and I love it.  Manning isn't all that far from St. Augustine.  We would be glad to have you come down and fly with us sometime.  If you enjoy history, you will love St. Augustine since it is the "Nation's Oldest City" and has many interesting historic sites to visit.

Yep retirement is the way to go.   As Tom Wilk keeps telling me,  "Do nothing all morning so I can take a nap in the afternoon".  Anyway, congradulations on retirement Bob.  DOC Holliday
