Pine Donkey Report post Posted August 6, 2018 Plan to have a split retirement, our place in Nutrioso part of the year, and somewhere on a beach the rest of the year. No shivering, no sweating type of life. Been scouting beach locations for several years now...Cabo, San Carlos, Cancun, Jamaica, Dominican Republic, and Costa Rica. Next up in Belize, Honduras, Panama and who knows. I hope the retirement is as good as the prep! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
300RUM Report post Posted August 6, 2018 Don't really have it all figured out yet, but I am smart enough to migrate and always head where the weather is nicer. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snapshot Report post Posted August 8, 2018 I'm ready to crawl to the north pole on my hands and knees. The older I get, the more living in the desert summers really blows. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

singleshot Report post Posted August 9, 2018 Trees burn and you can't see anything if you build in the middle of them. Pine needles add up to a lot of work at times. wanted a view and actually thats about a hundred trees. mature ones. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattys281 Report post Posted August 9, 2018 Trees burn and you can't see anything if you build in the middle of them. Pine needles add up to a lot of work at times. wanted a view and actually thats about a hundred trees. mature ones. Man, you're not kidding. We bought our "forever" home last fall south of Prescott up in the pines. Have over 100 trees on 1.25 acres, mostly ponderosa but also some oaks & others that I don't know. So far we must have filled pretty close to 100 large hefty trash bags with pine needles and still aren't done. Do a little bit at a time whenever we're up there. I don't think the previous owners ever cleaned the yard, the carpet of leaf debris is about 3" thick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
