Thank you very much Travis. Still mending some issues here at home, in MA, then hope to go to the Knoxville area on my last vaca week in November, really want a place where the water isnt frozen from Nov-Mar, and as far as golfing, im horrible, I like the small courses. U really gave me the answers I was hoping to hear. I was told to look at middle TN (Nashville metro), looking for a small city/town to relocate to, 25-50 thousand people at the most, and thought knoxville metro (east part of state), looked like a better pace of life for me. Im just passed middle aged, want the low cost, easier, more relaxing way of life, stress in MA is tough (and most freshwater fishing is horrible). Thank u
