As an addendum, I forgot to add, speaking of the vagaries of nature, all a lot of these old guys talk about is their injuries, lol

When my bestie wanted to get out of CA she nearly got talked into a semi beach front condo in that area that was being sold by a nutrition consultant that she knew at the time. I'd like to think I talked her out of it...

(I admit mostly because I didn't want to visit her in FL...)

She then found herself a place in Asheville Nc....

Ain't nowhere safe. I just moved myself out onto what is probably an historic floodplain because the rent is cheap.

And us old folk talk about injuries because I can tell you, at 60 they all come back and haunt you. Just had the local Trailer Hauler and his lady out here doing their thing. Half the time we talked about their joint replacement surgeries and how effed up it is to be old.

Its (for me) instead of 'hope I die before I get old, but hope I die before I can no longer lift a 4x6 to shore up a porch canopy....
