D500 really articulated the notion of retirement well. For me, I have found the things that I was looking forward to in retirement turned out to be a life raft. The idea of now I can focus on my hobbies was the brass ring. The reality is that I am now able to focus on the escoteric. I am binge-living. I now get the magazines that I didn't have time for. I am watching TV programs that are astounding. YouTube is turning into the new Wiki. What I am saying is that any question that pops into my mind can be answered one way or the other. My mind has become a flight risk, leaving my body to fend for itself on occasion. Headphones are usually involved...
I am hoping that after a year of time trully off, I will get all that I have collected out of it's box and onto some track... David
