Puma,
We also had that plan to travel when he retires. He will turn 60 this year, so we have a few more years to go.
Plus we have hit a snag in the road so not sure that traveling will be in the cards. One of our daughters was given the diagnosis of cancer.
The insurance that she had through work turned out to be horrible. Lots of big co-pays that had to be made at the time of treatments or no treatment. We went through all of our savings and maxed out a few credit cards to ensure that our daughter was given every treatment available.
We are very thankful that she has now been cancer free for a little over a year.
We have no regrets and would do it all over again in a heartbeat.
I am sharing this so you will understand why I am of the mindset that if you can go ahead and start traveling now, you should.
We just never know what tomorrow, next week, next month or next year will bring.
Take care,
Noki4
