You are such an adventurer, Rob! I wish you all the best, and
hope your experience with teaching stateside will be mostly
positive, as it has certainly changed a lot since 1970.
But, with your good retirement planning, you can always walk
away if it's not to your liking.
That's the best part of retirement, doing WHAT you WANT to do,
WHEN you want to do it!
