It All Starts Here

December 28, 2006 my friend of 26 years Olli and I went out for dinner at a German - Hungarian restaurant. As is the custom of people that have shared a good deal of time together, we reminissed about the times of old.

Since we first became friends we entered teaching and are in our second marriages. We have a lot of common ground that we have covered together. Yet, we are at another turn in the road as we both approach the age at which we could retire. We are both peering through that door without a very good idea of what is on the other side.
