I am soon to retire (end of the year), in fact two years ahead of my
schedule but right on time according to my employer. Anyway, I am looking
for that one ideal place. Ideal being large cheap property, "country"
location, sufficient home, garage for truck and boat, nearby deer woods/bird
fields/bass fishing. So my question is this: If you were to retire today and
could go wherever you desired in the continental U.S.A., with the above in
mind, then where would you go? You may respond directly if you wish. Thank
you.

Summer home on Champlain. Winter home on Okeechobee.
Yep, I'd be happy.

Middle Georgia - south of where you are now so land is cheaper and more deer.
We have a 12 deer per year limit - pretty high. Still close enough to West
Point, Eufaula, Oconee, Jackson, Sinclair, Blackshear and Tobosofkee as well as
the Flint River.

Alabama

Still can find cheap land, and taxes on it are low
no closed fishing season, we have some major water to fish
Only a couple days out of the year too cold to fish

Most liberal deer hunting limits (I think you can legally kill about a
140 deer each season now, if anyone ever wanted to hunt every day and
take his limit,) the most I have killed in a year was 30.

No hunting or fishing license needed after 65 years old
WE have a state constitutional "right" to hunt and fish, so there is no
PETA freaks running though the woods or in boats scaring the game or fish

Few gun laws, we have easy obtainable concealed pistol permits, of
course no permit is needed if carried in the open.

Very low crime rates in rural communities

Of course you will be called a damn yankee from now on

Just to let you know the difference between a yankee, and damn yankee

Damn yankees never leave, and we are getting a lot of retired damn
yankees now

Warren sez"

Motor Home. 'nuff said.

Only if health is NOT an issue.

Imagine 100 plus fishing days driving to/from Alaska.

Imagine fishing from B.C. to the Maritime Provinces and back.

Imagine bass fishing from California to Florida and back.

Good luck!
