We are on the last day of spring break and enjoying beautiful 80-degree days in sunny Florida, while our home in Minnesota got hit hard with almost a foot of snow (Minne-snow-da). One of my brothers posted a picture of his long driveway freshly plowed after 11” of snow!
It’s more than escaping the cold for warm weather that makes us love travel. It’s a chance to learn about different parts of the world, inspire our creative spirits, and shape our world view. As I tell people, it’s a great big interesting world and early retirement buys us a front-seat row, with a blessing of time to experience it in-depth!
Here is a link to an article I wrote about last year’s travels … “Fill Your Bucket List”.

Enjoy the last hours of your spring break. This post reminded me of the very last Calvin and Hobbes comic strip. http://i.imgur.com/i6K7p.png

Great comic! Love Calvin & Hobbes – they really capture the magic of a snowy day.

Think I’m gonna need to steal that quote for my desk! We love the “What shall we discover next?” philosophy!

Hanging on with the 9 to 5 myself, not sure how much more I can take. Someday I will be counting the days until retirement, but not quite yet. Congrats on 6 days to go! Hope it is everything you expected and more
