Warmer Weather

I can’t believe it is getting cold already. It seems like I dint even spend enough time outside enjoying the rays. I don’t think I went to enough cookouts or parties. I don’t know if I am just getting too old or the summers are getting shorter. Whatever the issue, I miss the sun.
Sometimes we think about moving to a warmer climate when we retire but at that point the kids will be dug in and have families. I think what we will do is buy a vacation home somewhere warmer and then eventually retire and go back and forth from the two homes. That way we will have the best of both worlds.
The hard part is where to pick, how far away, how much and how big. It would be nice to rent it out for a while and make some money but I’m sure that will come with some headaches. I have been thinking about North Carolina or South Carolina. All I hear are good things. It is warm, beautiful and not too far. The only problem is that they run the risk of hurricanes so flood insurance would be expensive. So anyway that is a dream of mine , I just have to start saving for a down payment.
