Newbie - Not Yet Retired

New Member
Saying hello to other members,

My retirement is a few years off but I am a planner and starting to sort out how and where to retire. Reading through these forums may help me along the way. Lately, I focus on the where as winters are too long up here in Massachusetts. I am considering where to go. Coastal Delaware? North Carolina? I practice Zen and would want to be near a zen community wherever I go. Also, I love to swim and garden. Love to read and sometimes attend theater and opera. I prefer town lifestyle. I have a blog but not a lot of time to write on it. Working still takes up too much time.

Thanks for your time.
 

Sending you a friendly welcome from Toronto, FrancesAnn! Good luck on finding the perfect place to retire. How many years do you have before that time?

Welcome Frances (my Mom’s name too💕). Guess you won’t be at all interested in retiring to Wisconsin unless you love Brandy Old Fashions, Beer, Cheese, and Green Bay Packers 😂
 
Welcome, FrancesAnn!
Hello from Nebraska :) I too am not retired yet but I long to be. Good luck on deciding where to go in your retirement. I understand the desire to move away from cold winters! I am considering the same thing. I will be looking to see where you end up.
 
Welcome FrancesAnn
I am sure you will get many good ideas, from glancing around our site, at the myriad of places and lifestyles, members have.
The ideas you already have in mind, sound good to me. I think it's helpful to plan ahead, rather than wait till the winters are much more difficult for you, later on in life, and it's more challenging to move then, as well.
