Lake Tahoe, NV and CA - January 18-27, 2014

Rob and I took a few days to celebrate my recent re-retirement.  While I retired from my career in physician office computer sales in 2010, just a couple weeks ago I retired from a two year stint as a yacht broker in Annapolis, MD

After driving back to southern California, we visited the Reagan Presidential Museum in Thousand Oaks, CA.

This plane was designated "Air Force 2" when none of her
passengers was the president.  On those flights a friend
of mine from Annapolis (Mike N.) was the radio operator.
This a photo of Mike N. when he was flying AF2, above.
