LIFE WITH US – RETIRED!
We wanted someplace warm in the fall –
winter and spring!
I gave my snow shovel away to the movers at my storage shed!
We sold almost all our lawn
STUFF” when we sold the house.
I do not mow anymore-
but I still weed and trim bushes and trees!
This past Christmas –
I decided that would be the last year that I stored everything over the garage.
Climbing that narrow drop-down ladder –
on my hands and knees passing items down
to Sherry who sometimes had to stand on the bottom rung of that drop-down ladder.
So – I cleared space on the shelves in the garage –
got rid of “STUFF”!
And now I have a place to store the Christmas boxes-
Sherry even gave a plastic container to Habitat –
Someone else can enjoy those decorations!
This is what being a Senior retired person –
must do when their years are quietly slipping past!
But – we look forward to the golf course –
with friends or by ourselves.
After all –
within 30 to 45 minutes-
are over thirty courses – some with 27 holes!
This was part of our wish list in moving here to OIB! N.C.



We wanted to be near the ocean and beach.
We are on the mainland the other side of the ICW!
We are near two beaches –
OIB and SUNSET BEACH –
Two other beaches –
Holden Beach and Oak Island are within 45 minutes.
North Myrtle Beach is thirty minutes.
This also was on our wish list of where to live.
We are in a very quiet community.
Almost a mile to the front road – Old Georgetown Road.
There is a park with four ball diamonds – a half dozen tennis courts-
and more than that in pickleball courts.
A basketball court and a dog park.
A paved track and soccer practice fields just across the road.

A place we now call home –
Friends and neighbors –
A community pool and center.
Walking roads – ponds and wildlife –
sunrises and sunsets.
CAMERON WOODS COMMUNITY-
Where house values are rising –
Resells now are happening –
as people move in and out.
Some – go back North where their families are –
We remain here and often make the trip back to NVA –
While all of the family has been down at one time or another.
LIFE WITH US RETIRED!

This is but a glimpse of our retirement –
Here in N.C. – S.C. border area –
Sun – and – Ocean – golf – friends and neighbors.
