My motto is: Embrace every stage of your life. Dipping your toe in the water also is good advice. Don't turn loose of your current world till you've been in the new world for a year or so, to be sure. In my case, I can't stand Florida summers (I once lived in St. Petersburg) so a northern home will always be in my life for the summers. But the winters in The Villages . .. ah! We're coming down to a Rainbow Drive rental January-March 2015. Yes, I'm a snowbird. But also a heatbird. So I like the best of both worlds.But we'll all different. YOU have to do what makes YOU happy. I like traveling (50 countries and 43 states and 11 cruises so far) so my residence is only where I go when I finish a trip.
