Incoming!!! Big changes for me. (And to hell with SS lol)

I’am about to turn a big corner in my life.

I’m turning 50 and retiring from 25yrs in Law Enforcement.

I will be starting a new chapter and totally new career and want something that I can look at to remind me of the sacrifices I’ve made while inspiring me on a new journey towards new life goals and accomplishments.

I’am so excited to have this iconic, yet unique piece.

Beautiful and timeless. It will be there for you when you retire for the second time and the rest of your years in leisure.
