My wife and I just closed on a new home in St. Marys, GA. Is in the most southeastern county in the state 1 mile north of Florida. I have been in IN my whole life and we wanted to try something different. The deer are small, but there are a lot of them. They are also a TON of wild hogs and there are black bear too. I plan to stay an active member of this forum, since I have been around for a long, long time. Let the games begin!

Best of luck. Short winters down there! I would love to move down to the SE but my wife is not a fan of the heat or snakes!

Good luck with the move and getting settled in. That’s not far from my brother who lives in northeastern Florida. I know they go up to at Mary’s every now and then. I was just down there last weekend, but no way I could live in that heat. Only reason I even go to Florida is because of my brother.

If I could talk my wife into moving south I'd be gone in just a few years if for no other reason than to hopefully never see another snow flake or a bout of freezing rain again. Unfortunately, she isn't willing to entertain the idea @ this time... Jajwrigh, best of luck with your move!

Congrats on your change and move. Next time down to Destin we need to meet. It seems we go down about every two years. This may change since we are retiring next June. Maybe a fall trip when it's not so hot. So September-early October fall of 2024.

My wife and I just closed on a new home in St. Marys, GA. Is in the most southeastern county in the state 1 mile north of Florida. I have been in IN my whole life and we wanted to try something different. The deer are small, but there are a lot of them. They are also a TON of wild hogs and there are black bear too. I plan to stay an active member of this forum, since I have been around for a long, long time. Let the games begin! On your way down, stop off in Jackson Ga. at Fresh Air BBQ ... You wont regret it. One of the oldest BBQ spits in Ga.

Since I know nothing about St Mary’s GA, I’m curious as to why you picked that town! And was there a reason not to locate in Florida since it is so close!?

We explored Amelia Island, FL all the way up the coast to Hilton Head, SC. It was all my wife's idea, and she is never spontaneous like that. St. Marys is quiet, money goes further for housing than FL and the gun laws are a bit more friendly in GA. The outdoor opportunities seemed a bit better too. We work remotely for ourselves, so we will be all over the place down there anyways. The schools are solid and the are where we bought the house is extremely nice. If we don't like it for some reason, we can always reposition ourselves in FL or SC perhaps.
