Oct 2009 Adventure magazine by National Geographic has a article that really make sense
Live Here Play Now

My husband and I adopted the similar theory when we cashed in our retirement and move to New Mexico I remember the deer in the headlight look and feeling I had giving up a secure job of 18 years and a place that we live at for 18 years. I wanted to enjoy life now not taking a chance on being able to do it later. Well thank god for that. Most of the people I know no longer have a retirement to speak of at least one that will support them. So now I don't feel so bad. I've been able to play in the mountains I've called home since birth. This article talks about living a simpler life one that cost less and includes more playing, and in these times it really makes sense. Think back at all the people that have worked to retirement age waiting for that time were they could do what they want and only live for a few years. My parents were one of those. So now it's time to complete that plan I'm giving up my house in the East Mountains to live in Grants again at a small ranch house so we can have an extra 1250 a month of play money. Now I have 2 homes that I run back and forth to and find that the plan we had when we moved out here isn't anymore, too busy traveling back and forth and spending too much on 2 homes. My husband and I don't see each other much he gave up that dream job of working only 2 days a week for a office job 5 days a week. I'm not going to live much pass retirement age my parents didn't and I have worked hard all my life for my family and have given them the head start that will make life easier. It's my time to play! It's time to get back on track!
