Where oh where to retire?

Blah Blah Blah, Pocono Mountains Pennsylvania, Low taxes, plenty of hunting
and fishing, most of it in your own backyard. Get a lake house bordering
state game lands for about 150,000-250,000. Less if you don't need 5
bedrooms, I love it here

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.

No doubt about it. Clarksville, Va. A small friendly town surrounded by a
large population of deer and turkeys. The deer are so plentiful, the game &
fisheries people offend give hunt clubs a hundred extra doe stamps just to
keep the herds in check. Oh yea, a 50,000 acre lake to fish in year around.

I thought you were just complaining about the fishing being about over for the
year - until next spring? We don't have any closed seasons and have decent
fishing weather 12 months a year.

That's what he needs, retire from Law Enforcement and move to a city that
you have to walk right by the main gate of the Colorado prison. ;-)

sent into the ether:

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!
John

Pretty close to my idea.
If I can swing it I want a fairly new slide in truck camper and truck.
A boat beside the sponge would help also. :}

Start out in spring, leave Wisconsin and fish Minnesota, the Dakotas,
Idaho and Montana. Meet my old partner in Northern California and
head up to alaska for part of the summer. Work our way down the coast
into Nevada,Texas and drop him off in Arizona. Spend the fall fishing
the south and winter in Florida. Spring work up the East coast and
into New England then Canada.
And that's just the first year or so.

I am in the process of making contacts with my peers around the
country for future short lasting contract jobs. Nothing like picking
up a little cash while fishing a new area.

Like Warren said, if the health is up to it.

You should check out Hot Springs Arkansas. It's surrounded by 3 lakes.
