I figured out what I want to do in retirement. We'll move to West Texas and I'll pick cotton up off the sides of the road - it's everywhere! - and clean it, card it, spin it, dye it and weave it into stuff: linen for shirts, or banners or whatever.
We decided we rather liked Texas. The people are friendly and polite, including the kids. The weather is sunny, and there is a plain beauty to the flat landscape.
So maybe we wouldn't live there full time, but maybe in the fall and winter.
