In 2005 and after 31 years in the brewing industry I chose "Freedom 55" and retired early. This allowed me to follow my passion of scuba diving and travel. I moved out to Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada for 3 years and became a professional scuba instructer.  Shortly after returning from New Zealand in the fall of 2011, I have been having to deal with a couple of non diving related medical issues which has forced me to hang up the mask and fins for a spell. This should give me more time for taking pictures...lol.

"Most people can look back over the years and identify a time and place at which their lives changed significantly. Whether by accident or design, these are the moments when, because of a readiness within us and a collaboration with events occurring around us, we are forced to seriously reappraise ourselves and the conditions under which we live and to make certain choices that will affect the rest of our lives."

I agree with photosyn, it does look like a children's book illustration. So very painterly and conveying a story! Wonderful use of an old image! My best farm dog was a cinnamon colored with white collar/feet/tail tip and dutch markings on face Chow/Border Collie cross (with the heavy Chow coat) - "Scout". He was so smart that he knew "our" rabbits from the wild ones, if ours got lose he'd round them up back to their cage and bark for me to come put them up. Also raised a few foals, miss the whole multi-tasking farm experience!
