I am about 10 months into my return to playing after 20 years and enjoying myself immensely.

Right now I am playing Oboe I for a local university's summer orchestra (mix of students + older community folks like me). Interesting and challenging program including Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition (rarer Tushmalov arrangement, not Ravel), Britten's Matinees Musicales, Corigliano's Elegy for Orchestra, and a Tuba (!) concerto by Sanae Kanda.

Lots of meaty oboe solos in Britten and Pictures. Great fun, with rehearsals and the concert in a beautiful historic hall with excellent acoustics.
