I am seriously thinking about just retiring and enjoying life for a few years/decades. I have a good sized lot and yard here where I am. I can grow citrus trees and other simi-tropical fruit. I will be showing you some of what I have already been working on in later posts.
This year I was working on the land in Ohio for a few months. I enjoyed that too.
Instead of spending 4-6 months in Ohio. I will delegate more responsibility to others for care of the land.
Maybe 2-3 months in Ohio working the land. That could be something that would work for me too.
It too is so beautiful to me.
The trip down to Sarasota County is very tiring to Pat and me. One thousand (1,000) miles is a lot of driving. The big (Red Truck) rolled us down here with the greatest of ease. Just the constant driving is tough. Ha
The truck is a very handy vehicle to have. If Tesla wants to give us electric vehicles to drive.. For me it will have to be a truck. lol
A good truck is a must have for any working man or woman. I can't imagine trying to do without one.
Finally to keep up with my "futures trading". I will show you what I was able to find in the market.
I was disappointed again. You will see why.
The green numbers in the upper right hand corner are very small. I will have to do much better than that. lol
The "Completed Orders" page shows the calamity. It was a wild trading day. I did finally gain a little though. I have always told Pat that if I could get enough gain from my futures trading to pay for our food. That would be a plus for our financial budget. So the trading still continues for now at least. Ha
Friends. I will have a lot more to show you over the coming months.
No hurricanes here for now. That will be in a later season.
It is a joy to live here now. So many interesting places and things to visit and look at.
Florida is truly a great retirement place to live. So much to consider about this State.
Many come here for just the winter alone. Everything you need is here. I love it.
Thank you for reading my post. I hope you follow along with me as I show you many
more interesting places and views to see over the next few week/months.
Our Steemit is a great place to record and to do that for you.
