So are you looking for some place cold (to hibernate), or some place warm (to luxuriate) ?

That's what I've been considering. I do have a relative who lives in Bradenton, just south of Tampa.

I'm starting to have those kinds of thoughts already. ( Not that I'm at the end of my life )
Good advice, LH, thanks. :)
