Patrick, I gotta tell you, I've wondered why you don't do just that. I would in your shoes, in a heart beat (easy to say.) I'd vote for Guam. I suspect the coast of living is maybe a bit less. Why not do a DXpedition this winter while business is slow? Check it out!
When my high school class turned 65 (we are still a very close group) we voted in a new class motto: "If not now, WHEN?" You can see the results for me! One of our motivations is that we have started to lose a number of classmates.... almost all to cancer. Is a big motivator. That exploratory DXpedition might not be a bad way to spend a couple of weeks in February or March. John B. P.S. How is your Spanish??? I bet that they could use a locksmith on Easter Island!
