<strong>RICHARD</strong> <strong>ALLEN</strong> <strong>SCOTT</strong><br />

THROUGH THE YEARS<br />

2008<br />

I completed a contract from 2007 in February, and was idle for <strong>the</strong> rest of <strong>the</strong> year (workwise).<br />

Did a fair bit of travelling instead. Which I much preferred.<br />

I turned 60 this year and started collecting my Canada Pension<br />

Plan (CPP). I decided to take it before <strong>the</strong> age of 65, and thus<br />

incur a penalty, because Dad died at 61 (his bro<strong>the</strong>r quite a bit<br />

younger), which raised my longevity as an issue with me.<br />

Sharon and I took a whirlwind trip to Las<br />

Vegas with Robyne for a couple of days,<br />

had beginner’s luck, won a little pot of<br />

money and came home!<br />

Then we were off for a week to Daytona<br />

Beach, Florida, with Sharon’s Mum and<br />

Dad.<br />

And of course, a week in Punta Cana in March of this year.<br />

Perfect….and<br />

Spring came<br />

early too!<br />

…and here comes Bo Derek<br />

just like in <strong>the</strong> movie ‘10’<br />
