We looked very seriously at retiring in West Texas—Alpine area.
At the end of the day we did not make the move—made that “go or no go” decision five years ago....
The reason—I was concerned that border security had deteriorated and while the area was reasonably crime free at the time I was not persuaded it would remain that way for the upcoming couple of decades.
For elderly folks security is job one.
I tried to participate in a laziness contest but I gave up before it started.
