Cowman: I know how you feel. Problem with most of those nice warm spots is loony people, plus it will just get so hot at other end, you will have to come back to NE for summer. I always thought an aunt and uncle of my wife had the real life. Spent their working years in Syarcuse NY, raised a family. In retirement they bought a spot in rural Florida and already owned a spot in rural Prince Edward Island, Canada. They had a mobile in Florida and a rough 2x4 cottage in PEI. Every spring and fall they stopped by to annoy their kids in upstate NY. I thought what a perfect retirement, but that was a generation ago. Besides if one of us were to do that today we would need 3 sets of tractors. I have thought of buying a Super B train tractor trailer, living quarters on front trailer, tractors and car on back one. A guy could just migrate like the birds. Down side to that, it takes big bucks. (both ideas) I notice one of the guys suggested a better pair of long johns. I know a guy who has a pair of heated socks, similar idea to electric blanket. Apparently it has batteries and a plug in charger for when watching TV or at the computer. If you could get the same system in long johns, might be a good item. However the battery size may make you a target for muggers thinking you had a big wallet full of cash. I think the best idea for guys our age is learn to be fireside guys in winter.
