Very good question my old friend, since I’m retired myself. My whole family on both sides of my marriage live here. My parents and wife’s parents live in my town. My brother lives in central Cali, and my wife’s sisters/kids cousins live in the Bay Area. So I’m/we are only here still so the grandparents can be close to some grandkids. And…my wife has a pretty good job with very good benefits here. So there is that too.

Lastly we do live in the far northern part of Cali, surrounded by a thick sea of red counties and people. The county I live in along with all the surrounding ones are in legal process of forming a new State also. It might be interesting living in even more history making than what’s going on Nationally haha.

That’s the short of it my friend. God bless you.
