The plan is to move to Orlando when my daughter is done playing softball in college. Maybe that will give us something to do together.

My wife and I both have jobs and already do a lot of things separately. She has some friends that she does biking and running with, she sews, reads a lot whereas I am on the computer playing games, watch TV, backpack etc.

I don't see empty nester being as big of an issue as (potentially) when we are retired and are literally together 24 x 7.

I'm thinking FL (or a no state-tax state) for retirement but wasn't thinking about Orlando (too close to the tourists). Possibly St. Augustine or Tampa area. Why Orlando for you?
