..the more physically strenuous items off our bucket list first:

I've Spent My Retirement Traveling — Here Are 9 Resorts Retirees Will Love

You're retired — and vaccinated — and it's time to treat yourself to a well-deserved and probably long-awaited vacation. With no time constraints, you can plan a stay of a few weeks, and you might appreciate the convenience of a destination resort that lets you arrive, unpack, and enjoy dining and most activities on site.

Like many retirees, you're game to try something novel or pick up a new hobby, and you want to continue (or start) focusing on your well-being and health. The right mix of relaxation and activities, opportunities for time outdoors, pampering, and fun should complete the picture. A place designed for adults might be ideal, and perhaps a (short) visit and some entertainment for the grandkids and family would work well, especially if your get-togethers have been limited over the past year.

Ok, share those 9.  I'm interested and all ears!  I'm looking for the same thing.

Ok, finally see the list and not too crazy.  My own list is probably better ;D ;D

Yep, just like looks, food, movie, music, cars, electronics, tools, purse, etc., resorts can be subjective and opinions can vary so it's better to make one's own list for oneself.. O0

I'm just happy with my ice fishing as I never get tired of doing it.  There's just something so simple and almost stupid about pulling up a fish out of a hole by one's feet.  On top of it, it's on the ice.  O0

If I fall asleep on the seat, wake up to fish tugging on the line.  :D

They call it picture perfect for a reason.  Might not look like that when you do get there.

First thing first folks.  Go get your eyes fix if you do not have perfect vision then you can go on your trips.  Yeh to lasik surgery but it is not a fix for all.  I do know a person who got theirs done and she was an exception as her bad vision came back in a quickness. 

I got my passport but still no stamp.  Covid messes things up.

True dat regarding "Covid messed things up"..

Although I've traveled quiet a bit domestically and international, there are still many spots on my list that I have not crossed off..

Will keep going for as long as I can though as traveling, exploring and seeing new places is one of my passions.. O0
