United StatesOh that sea eagle is beautiful! I live on the east coast @shrinkette 
Orlando, but our beach house is in St Pete Beach, 2 blocks from the beach, the Gulf of Mexico. Where are you? Yes it is hot, but it's always a bit less hot near the coast, nice ocean breezes. I'm also concerned we can't really do much, with me still not walking great, tiring easily and dragging this damn vac everywhere. But just being out there, eating seafood, and seeing different 4 walls seems good to me. I have to also drag a virtual medical supply house out there with me, my 3x/day abx, wound vac cannisters, wound vac dressing stuff in case it freaks out and I need to get it changed. As we have it set up now, my nurse comes to change it today, then hope it holds until we are back Thursday. Just a little history on this little house that could. We bought it in 2008 when my husband had a very well paying, management job, a 25 year career, where he made the company millions of dollars. We saved and saved to buy this house, while still paying a mortgage on our Orlando home. It was a bit of a stretch, but doable. Well 6 months later, recession hit, and the company, reduced its staff, and the highest paid were the ones cut. He was unemployed fir the first time ever. We really struggled to get thru the next 2 years, to keep both houses. He took a crappy pre retirement job in 2010, driving a bus at Disney World so we could have healh ins, and get us to medicare and retirement. My business picked up just enough to squeak us thru, get the orlando mortgage paid off and insure we were able to keep our beloved little beach house. So this house at the beach really means alot to us. In about a year, he will officially retire, we will sell orlando, and move to the beach for our final chapter. Sorry if that's more than you to needed to know, just wanted to share. Wish me luck on the trip, well leave later this afternoon.
