G'day to you all.

Just to give you an update - many know that I WAS retired in March and have been living the life of Riley in Thailand since except for a two week trip to Kuala Lumpur and three weeks to Canada, Indiana and Ohio.

Well, unless it falls apart completely, I will be starting a new position in a few weeks in the lovely country of Tajikistan. Yep - look it up! I had to to find out exactly where it was located. It will be on a major hydro electric project. Looking forward to getting back to work.

Best to you all - and if you have any suggestions on adding more to the group, let me know.

For Cornell's Big Red - football season starts in about 3 hours!!

LOL! BigH...good to hear from you!

Glad you're back in the game. Hydroelectric construction...yeah, you've been there, done that. Piece of cake for you. I knew you wouldn't stay "retired" for long!

Will discuss a few things in email to you within next week or so.

I have a fried who is just back form Tajikistan and said it is amazing. Scenery is beautiful and very mountainous.

Good luck.
 
Hey Great News. Now and then an update and photos please.
 
So it's true: engineers never retire - they just get more choosy about their work as they get older.
 
It is Rogun HP. And thanks to all ! ! !
 
jdonville - True, very true.

Best of luck BigH, hope you enjoy the project.

BigH, you must be some kind of collector of remote places, I remember you've been working in Xingjian a long while ago. Don't forget to post some pictures of Tajikistan!
 
I've been enjoying your FB posts. Glad to hear they have decent pizza!
 
Will post some pictures soon - cannot of the site - I am not permitted to take pictures with my cell phone and cameraa all have to be registered. Not sure what that means yet. Am with a different company after 40+ years with my formere one.
