As far as your question, I’ve followed a lot of your posts and you and your family seem to be making well thought out decisions. It’s not easy, I’m sure, to pack up and leave behind everything you’ve known....to go somewhere else, less known to you...lock, stock and barrel. I’m in the younger demo here, still work, have family/friends up north and still love my life there. Many, not all, choose to split time between both residences. It’s not feasible for some but it’s really the best of both worlds for others. I’ve always enjoyed summers in NH and ME on the lakes and just having that contrast is very important to me and my family. It’s an ongoing topic on this forum. A very personal decision and as long as you stay happy and healthy...whatever your decisions going forward, I for one am rooting for you LeRoy!

Ah, letting go of the cars will be easy. I've made that transition multiple times in my life and I hope to continue but on a much smaller scale.
We thought we'd like being snowflakes but anytime I'm at home I'm just looking forward to coming back here. Balancing 2 homes isn't what I thought it would be, I think we will go back to having a home base for most of the year and spend the ugly season somewhere else. I'd rather rent a house for a couple of months up north than the other way around (I'm looking forward to a few months in Montana, Idaho, Maine etc. during the hot months - talk about a social wasteland

that's going to make Lake Denham look like Michigan Ave).
