We lived in Jupiter FL for 7 years after I was transferred down here for my job (I was a corporate pilot all those years).

I retired from flying in 2001 and we moved to this coast to be closer to children and grandchildren. We’ve lived in Florida for 12 years.

Carolyn retired when we moved down here (She was activity director at a nursing home in Middleton).

I didn’t like retirement too well, so I am now a yacht broker in Bradenton (big yachts) and enjoy it. We have our boat in our backyard on a canal and our neighborhood is a boating community. We cruise with neighbors for up to 9 days a trip to various places in Florida and stay on our boats at various resorts, etc.
