We too will soon be retiring to TV. I retired in 2004 and my husband will hopefully be retiring by the end of the year. We have purchased a home in TV...YEAH! My heart is already aching about leaving our son, his wife and our two grandchileren, ages 3 & 6, for several months. I tear up just thinking about it. Our son and his dad have worked together for 20 years and I know it will be hard on us all. However, we need to do this. We both have worked hard all of our lives and now it's time to play and have some fun. Time flies, life changes and you just never know how long you have here on earth. I trust that once we get to TV we will be fine. I keep telling myself...Life will go on, they will visit and come spring we will be back up north for a few months and by fall we will be ready to head back to TV!
