America is sinking so fast... sadly the Titanic style illusion only seems to be working for those still on board. Mexico would be an awesome next step. And the beaches are so gorgeous!! Florida is full of retired jaded mindsets, as I'm sure you're gonna find out.
But totally with you on warm and flying far from the nest. 😊
Yeah things are going pretty wild. My ideal setup would be two or three acres of land so we can sustain ourselves if need be! I know it's expensive in Florida but that to me is a stepping stone. The land is cheaper in neighboring states but we just need to get ourselves down south. New England is an increasingly toxic area to live and raise a family in peace, no thanks!
Great analogy with the family and training wheels! Some families teach you what not to do and how not to treat others so that, if given the right situation, you can start one on your own the way you want to! I think that was a great analogy for sure :D
