[Skip Newsom]

Congratulations!!
I retired a little over 3 years ago, you have a great basic plan!
No debts, no obligations is the best way to begin a new chapter.

I also like that you will take some time to wrap up before moving, I've seen a few people make huge moves financially and physically right after they retire and that does not always work out so well, sometimes the grass is not greener elsewhere.

I keep and endless stream of projects on a list and in process... it's a luxury to wake up and decide what I want to work on or where I want to go for the day.

There is still so many things I want to do right here in Washington, but if I were to move to get away from the high cost of living it would be somewhere in Oregon Idaho or Montana. Despite the political nonsense I would stay in the US and feed my addiction to mountains and wild places.
