BBJfla Old Folkies' Home/Retirement Village (104* d) RE: Old Folkies' Home/Retirement Village 04 Jan 99


I'm down here is the Tampa Florida area, and nearby there is an old couple who own what was once a poultry farm. Their sons got interested in ultralight aircraft, and needed a more rural locale for their activity, so they got Mom & Dad to let them use their property. One thing led to another, and today that farm is an ultralight airfield, with about 100 ultralights stored and based there. (and paying rent enough to cover the expenses and provide a nice retirement for the folks!)

I envy those people, and it would not take much to convince me that a Folk Music Retirement Villiage could just sort of happen. So those of you who are at least half serious about this idea, why don't we pursue it a little further? How many of us would like to retire to a place up near Ocala, FL, which is horse country, about an hour from Tampa, an hour from Orlando, and an hour from Gainesville (University of Florida has a fine hospital)? What would be a next step in exploring this idea? Who has another location in mind?
