I love the concept of retiring in an Eco-community. Hopefully, more of these will be springing up around the country. It's a natural for many boomers who want to remain active in an environment that pleases all their senses.
Debb~
Possibly as Baby Boomers, who are known for their good taste, retire, we will see, as you suggest, the trend toward eco-friendly developments continue...
Hi janeAnne~ What better way to retire, than in a beautiful environment offering the encouragement of physical and mental enlightenment?
I can hear the waterfall now...
I have to say that Asheville sounds like a really cool place to live! You guys are way ahead of the curve.
