W:Excuse me, is this seat taken?
M:No, it's not taken. You can take it, please.
W:Thank you. Where are you going?
M:I'm going to New York to join my family there, my son and my grandchildren. What about you?
W:So am I. My husband John and I celebrate our fortieth wedding anniversary next week.
M:Oh, congratulations! That's nice. What does John do?
W:He's an aerospace engineer and works for Orlando Aircraft Corporation. He started with them almost thirty-five years ago. What do you do, sir?
M: I just retired. I had my own company, a construction company. Roads, bridges, big stuff. But I sold it and retired when my wife died four years ago.
W:I'm sorry to hear that.
