So yeah...there are some boaters here. Just be careful about their

You could move a little further south. Tennessee has some nice fishing
lakes.......

3-4 years: Montauk or perhaps Rhode Island.

1964 and my first experience in Tennessee. Traveling home from school in
Ohio to a f'n draft notice. Stayed in Jackson, TN. I thought about the
warm South. 28 f'n degrees. Better go further South. Maybe to St. John,
V.I.

You won't believe this Bill, but one of my good friends in high school
got his draft notice, it was too late for college entrance, so he left
for Bahamas and stayed there. Working the fishing boats and guiding,
he built up a nice little nest egg and bought a beachside hotel,
catering to the sal****er flyfishing snobs.

Years later, he was pardoned by President Carter, returned to the US,
did some community time, sold his hotel and now owns a terrific resort
and fishing camp in Costa Rica - which I visit once a year for free -
not a dime goes from me to him. :)

Later,

Tom
