Newbie to the community and REI!

[Melvin Atangan]

Hello everyone! My name is Melvin and I'm so happy I stumbled upon this community. I'm a veteran who retired a year ago after 20 years of service and enjoying life more now that I'm able to spend more time with my family. I am here to learn and absorb as much information so I can gain enough knowledge and confidence to pull the trigger before my wife and I embark on our REI journey. Looking forward to connecting with all of you! Thanks in advance!
