Old Ironmaker Posted September 30, 2017 Report Posted September 30, 2017 Livin' the dream Peter. Good on you. Many people fantasize and wish themselves to sleep. Wake the next day and force themselves to do something they do not like and sometimes even despise. I took my pension at age 45, everyone thought I was out of my mind. I made big money and had to deal with big numbskulls and the world coming to the end day in and day out. I could have made a million more staying 10 more years. So freeking what. It's been 17 years and I don't regret that decision to get out while I still could with most of my fingers and toes. Moved to the lake and we can fish from our own little beach, or swim or do didley squat. Plus we haven't missed a meal. Enjoy life while you still can, good luck to you and thanks for the invite. You never know, my sis and brother in law just bought a beautiful property on Mahon Bay for what is maybe 6 years of property taxes in Toronto.

John Posted September 30, 2017 Report Posted September 30, 2017 Congrat's Peter! I was wondering where you had gone. I love it out there and only wish I could make the move too. Wishing you all the best and happy times ahead. Are you planning on getting involved with coast guard?
Old Ironmaker Posted September 30, 2017 Report Posted September 30, 2017 I love Nova Scotia and we were contemplating moving to the area you are 17 years ago. That was until I realized they get 8 months of winter, 2 months of Hurricanes and 2 months of paradise. We do not enjoy rain, snow and cold so we sucked out and bought in Florida.

crappieperchhunter Posted October 1, 2017 Report Posted October 1, 2017 Garage saling in Bobcaygeon this summer.....started chatting with the 60ish couple selling there wares....turns out they where retiring to Nova Scotia. One of them was from there ....can't remember husband or wife.... but man where they excited about it. There excitement was infectious and I remember driving away and telling Debbe how happy I was for them. Grab it with both hands and enjoy it. We all only get to do this dance just once.
