Wishing you the ordinary pleasures: a window seat, a warm drink, a long quiet hour.

May your retirement feel like the very best vacation, only without the return flight.

Here's to long lunches, longer naps, and the longest stretch of peace yet.

May you live these years widely — through travel, through books, through grandchildren's eyes.

Wishing you a retirement that surprises you with how good it can be.

May the next phase be full of small adventures and even smaller worries.
