I'd head east from the Piedmont to the Atlantic, although some prefer Ashville. Now I have a place to go, so in three and a half hours I can stay as long as I have time. That's the problem. Working provides income but take up all of my time. Thinking about having 20 or 30 years of my time will take some consideration. Maybe a person can do nothing.
There is a good senior center near by. How will I adjust to making friends apart from work and my tribe at Andersen? Beach seniors might be like me, independent. I will find a way to contribute.
Moving out of Brighton Square will be a long process so I am already thinking about it.
Moving in entails a lot of downsizing. Start planning.
