Specialty selection struggles

Nat and Mary,
Thanks for the advice. I had sort of forgotten about the weather issue, which actually is a very important consideration, as we get 160 inches of snow a year, and have flights cancelled routinely out of our tiny commuter airport-- having time to reschedule is an important consideration. I’ll have to think about scheduling flights out of a different airport, where the conditions are likely to be better. Thanks for that reminder! Mary, I think I’ll find that I do want the down time-- I am certain to have to move-- the ‘where’ is the only question.
Thanks again for the good advice and being souding boards.
