Mrs. GeneJockey is sending me listings on Realtor that are in Buffalo NY. I remember how much snow falls there. I think her plan is to have us retire there, then kill me with snow shovelling the first winter, sell up and move somewhere else.

That is not retiring. Nobody lives in Buffalo unless they have to.

We still want to retire to Andalucía but life has become quite complicated so not likely. More realistic is spend a few months there each winter but stay in NE the rest of the year. That’s assuming covid situation better in a few years, of course.

I had such hope last Spring, but it ran head on into a world of Stupid.

The pages there spawn other pages, or "subs". Like the mechanics post pictures of customer cars with trash inside, and another whole sub starts called "Carbage".
