Hello all,
    It is with bittersweet feelings that I must inform ya'll that I am retiring on 4 Oct.  I am now in the process of looking for a job, packing the house and trying to finally get out of Abilene Tx in one piece.  I wish I could be there again this year at WW but it's just not in the cards this time.  
    I want you all to know that I consider my association with TIB to be one of the things that I treasure most in my Military career and I wish you all the best.  Gretchen and I are looking to relocate to the Northwest area of the country so when the teams come to McChord, we'll be sure to make the shows.
    In closing, please take care of each other, keep playing and remember...........failure is not an option.

Much Love and Respect,

Poppa G

Grady,

You don't have to make it sound like you're relocating to the moon.  You'll still be around.

Congrats and best wishes in all your future endeavors.

Jamie

Aw Grady, and I was going to tell you that if you rode you bike to WW, that I would too!  That sux.  Wow, yeah retirement is a big step.  I'm just 5 years away!  Had to fill out my decision paperwork for it last week.  Times sure flies, doesn't it!  We'll meet again someday.  Ooo, like, at Sturgis 2008!!! Mark your calendar!!!    Very Happy

Poppa G,

It was a pleasure getting to know you this past year and a half.  Although, it was brief, the comradery lasts a lifetime. Feels like longer, I know. God Bless you and your family as you make the transition....

.....And the Beat Goes On! LOL

Blue Luv

Grady, we'll miss you at WW this year!  Thanks for looking out for us in the pit in the past.  Hope to catch you next time around.

Good luck with the move.  The great PNW is a nice area.  I grew up in Seattle, still miss that area (well, except for the rain...).

How far of a drive is it from there to Travis?
