So since our wings are proverbially clipped, here's to dreaming. Hopefully by some stroke of luck we'll be retired in 2042.
Here's our list as it stands:
Live in Manhattan proper, preferably a brownstone in Greenwich Village, for 3 months and immerse ourselves in the culture.
John wants to volunteer at Old Sturbridge Village for 2 months. I will find a hobby of somesort, maybe I'll work in the Village Store, it's got AC and you can wear civilian clothing. HA!
Travel to Europe: Italy, France, Switzerland, England, Germany being the top stops. Hey, we've got the time, and we're dreaming so keep your doubtful thoughts to yourself.
Rent a house, for the whole summer, on either Cape Cod or Drakes Island, ME and have our kids and grandkids come and go as their schedules allow.
Sleep in on a random Tuesday. Read a book all day long only stopping to share a really good lunch and/or take a nap.
Make sun tea and crochet blankets for the next generation (um, I think I am already old).
