Thank you. I’ll be in Ocean Isle Beach.. My brother retired down there. I’ll actually be looking at real estate when I’m down there; Albeit not in Ocean Isle Beach. I am the poor family member that has a federal job. But I won’t have enough years in to get a good pension. I worked government contracts my entire career in the public sector. I’m only starting my 14th year on the government side. My brother on the other hand worked pharmaceutical. After working for 2 of the largest pharmaceuticals, he took a gamble on a smaller fairly new start up. That company was Moderna. His team actually worked the Covid vaccine. Suffice to say, he’s living very large in retirement. They just sold 2 houses, built a larger house in NC, bought a working farm, and they’re working on drawings for another house in the Poconos. My head spins thinking about it all.
I just want to live in a shack with a wrap around porch, but I want a large barn that I can convert into a woodworking workshop, art studio, Music room, and maybe even a portion of it for some horses and Alpacas and whatnot. I always thought I’d be in the mountains overlooking a valley with no direct neighbors. But realistically, my body won’t allow me to live so isolated. I need to be closer to where people can keep an eye on me.
On a side note, I did not know NC was known as the Tar Heel State or Wolf Pack. I’m not sure what a Tar Heel is or why it’s called the Wolf Pack. I’ll have to Google them. My nickname is WolfSpirit.
