Hello All:

Living in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia is a blessing for young and old. The climate is relatively mild and the landscape is mostly green with rolling hills. And the people are super nice.

I've been retired since 1994 and love it! Young folks have it rough these days. rougher than in my time, I do believe.

Since retiring, I've taken to sailing. I own a small, 22 foot sloop that's big enough to live in. Have cruised for as long as three months at a time.

Also, I write novels, which I market as a self-publshing author. My books sell well, I'm happy to say. I'm a practicing numerologist as well, and wrote a self-help book called Numerology for Soul Awakening, which I offer in a pdf version as a free gift. See my wewbsite if you want a copy.

I look forward to reading posting here. Just read Randall's story...he must have hundreds of good stories to tell.

Well, that's it for now. Cheers to all.,

with best wishes,

Vitae

Hi vitaeb and welcome to the garden.:-6

Welcome! I understand people live long and well in the Shenandoah Valley, which makes you just a bit into middle age. You've got a good 40-50 years left to write down the first half & let us know what to expect. :-6



So don't hold back!

Hi Vitae and welcome to FG!! I'm looking forward to hearing more from you! :yh_peace

Good Morning V and welcome to the Garden. I'm sure you will find many kindred spirits here.

Welcome from one old geezer to another. You have me beat by a couple of years. My ancestors were Shenandoah folks.

Hello Mr. V, you live in a beautiful place. I hope you have fun here.

Hey, that's great! I want to try that! How do you "self publish"? I've got a couple of stories hanging around here, would you read them for me?

Hi Vitae, welcome to the Garden, you will enjoy it here. I just took early retirement January 31st this year. I'm still getting used to it, & starting to like it.

So many things that have to be done, it's not easy being retired!!! ha- ha- ha!

Howdy Doo and a happy:-6 welcome from New Mexico.

My roots started in Virginia in the mid 1600's and one day I want to travel the area for a month or more.



What kind of books do you write? Do you have a pen name?

Hope to see you again.

Hello BTS:

Thanks for your warm welcome. Eveyone!:-6

I lived in New Mexico for two years in a little Spanish village 50 miles east of Santa Fe called Gusano...it was quite an experience.

I write under my own name. You can see my books at my web site,

which is listed below.

Thanks for asking.

Best wishes,

Vitae
