Moving to the area

Yeah I know about mud. I used to have a cabin located upstate NY and after the snow melted in the begining of April, the mud was always a problem untill the begining of June when it dries out. Your right about the roads, I should make sure we find a place on a good paved road.
I experienced an earthquake last summer inside a highrise building. As it was happening I told people that it was an earthquake. I've experianced them in the Navy on the west coast.
The flooding in Vermont and some area's of the Lake Region made the NY news. They showed film of the Winnipesaukee railroad station and the soil damage. Believe it or not, we live within three miles from salt water and very little happened.

Mike:

Please do tell, how have you managed to put yourself in a position to retire at age 50? That is pretty impressive. Congratulations.

I'm an NYPD civil service employee. It was a 20 year and old job when I signed up, but I'm a 25 year and out guy. Time flies!! This last shoulder operation that I went through as a result of a confrontation with the occupy Wall street Protesters seeled the deal for me. I've gotten stabbed in the past and went through two terrorist attacks. My nickname should be lucky. I'm getting to old to keep playing Russian rulet. The angel looking over me is telling me it's time. It's a young man's job.
