And you're so clever you quit high school to join the Marines, eh?




Sure, whatever you wan to think Harry.

But, you know where I live. It is not in a trailer off of Route 2 in
Calvert county.


Well, gosh, I don't live in a trailer off Route 2 in Calvert County,
either. By the way, Route 2 is Old Solomons Island Road. There are some
lovely farms and farmette estates along that road, including a few that
are for sale. You could sell that subdivision house up there on
Peckerwood Lane and use the proceeds as a downpayment on a nice piece of
property in an uncongested area near the Bay.


If I sold my house on Peckerwood Lane I could buy property on the water
with a dock near where you live. But, for now we will just stay on
Peckerwood Lane until the wife stops working or when I retire in 10
years and move to my retirement location.

Man! Picking a retirement location is difficult.

I'd been thinking about Wake Forest, NC, until I checked the water level.
It's downj 9 feet, and there's only one ramp useable now. However, there
are lots of golf courses and homes are cheap (compared to here).

My son-in-law wants me to move to the Williamsburg area. Lots of golf,
although not cheap, great access to a lot of water, and the price of homes
isn't bad. Not bad at all, I thought.

Then I find out about NC's income tax laws. Neither the wife nor I would
pay state income taxes on our federal pensions. Hell, that would be a
savings of about $8000 per year. That in itself would pay for a lot of golf
and boat gas!

What to do, what to do.
