[quote=Anonymous]Pets make life harder to go away, but make life  more joyful when you are at home ...but since this is a thread about travel. DH & I retired 10 yrs ago. We did one huge trip as soon as we retired. "tell me everyplace you'd like to go and I'll try to put it together." That's what I said and mostly what we did. Then, monthly stays to different areas. Learned we aren't really National Parks people. Not RV people. Not luxury travel people. I'll do a group tour if I can personalize it and break from the group for some independence. I will travel without my spouse. His desire to travel is less than mine. I love the DMV for 3 airports of significant size. I like living in the MidAtlantic. Don't feel the need to own a second home elsewhere. Don't want the hassle. Most of all, follow your muse. The parameters of what you'll want will change and always be evolving. Keep fixed expenses on the low side for flexibility. Imperfect decisions and mistakes and inconveniences happen. More so as you age. Make that almost a budget-line item. As you and your partner age, you'll want to grant each other grace and live with less stress.[/quote]
