Though we are retiring, we are never not thinking about business…ours or those we see as we travel! It’s hard not to reflect and compare, especially when we are no longer at the helm of each day’s activities. We put informational fences in place, target goals to meet, and we’re always thinking of different waysContinue reading “Is our business looking tired?”

A new year is upon us and it will be filled with amazement and wonder as we continue our nomadic lifestyle in our retirement!

It’s been several months since my last post…back home doing business again! BUT, we are once again actively retiring! We’ve sold one business and the other one is running under someone else right now! We spent the summer turning our home into a second B&B on our winery property: The Manor at Deer Creek Winery.

What do we do with our house that’s in the middle of our business?
February, 2021 Actively Retiring…..that continues being the case, at least the “actively” part! We continue talking and planning, but work continues to call us back.

Open my eyes Lord
Sept 12, 2020 We’ve had our camp tent at the Pymatuning Yacht Club (the “Club”) for about 6 weeks now. It is an hour and a half from home, a perfect distance to come on a whim for the day/night. We happened on it at the end of June looking for a place to putContinue reading “Open my eyes Lord”
Who we are and where we’re going?
My husband and I are in our late 50s which we neither one can believe! We own 2 different businesses, but really it is like 5 with the various areas it involves.
