Hawaii Delayed?

Mary and I like our new home on the beach. Locals have been telling us how nice the winters are here and we would be leaving during some of the best months. "It's spring when the June Gloom sets in that you will want to leave." so they say.

Furthermore we are still continuing to build our savings and Hawaii will cost us money. So we are considering staying through March before leaving for the Islands.

So on the small scale of our plans it appears that we are having trouble making up our minds, but on the larger scale the travel plans remain the same; except for one particular thing. Let me explain.

Our whole intention of travel nursing was to enjoy different locations during their prime season. That would rule out northern climes during the winter, and most likely southern climes during the summer, or even gulf locations in hurricane season.

When we locate to a place as wonderful as the beach house we're now in, why not enjoy it without feeling rushed? Why get to the next location just for the sake of trying something new?

The main challenge to this of course is that we are no longer going to the work, but asking the work to come to us. That may not pay off, and so we will place Hawaii as a contingency for now and hope that three more months of employment will come our way at the beach.

So I began by suggesting an exception to our larger plans, what might that be?

I don't foresee five years being long enough to travel and accomplish all that awaits us, and we may have to extend that time before settling down again.

"How long?" you might ask.

We'll see.
