ABOUT THE AUTHOR
                                  Rob Kelley. B.A. M.Ed.
   

Former teacher, department head, computer education consultant,
and textbook author, Rob retired at age fifty to set off in a new
direction. “Unfortunately, I turned into a couch potato that first
year.  When you retire, your daily routine, mental and physical
activities, and camaraderie at work all suddenly disappear.
Searching for activities that were personally fulfilling and not just
time-filling became my goal. I fervently believe that any retiree with a
little reflection on what they enjoy the most, and some creative
thinking on how to obtain their goals, can enjoy an immensely
rewarding retirement. I also believe that age, wealth, and education
are only limiting factors if you chose to perceive them as roadblocks,
Those who remain young at heart will enjoy new adventures well
into their eighties.

True to his beliefs, Rob has since researched and written two family
history books, joined the gym, been on two ocean cruises, attended
photography workshops in Florida and South Carolina, annual
writing workshops in California, organized a family tree reunion, and
taught himself how to play the piano. His most passionate hobby,
however, is writing books. He lives in a steel-manufacturing,
university town, home of the Hamilton Tiger Cats and Copps
Coliseum, in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
