Trish and Troy spent most of their careers working in the healthcare industry. He was a hospital administrator and she managed private dental and medical practices, leaving behind the orthopedic office she never thought she would say good-bye to so they could spend the rest of their lives chasing after their dreams... together.
Together, they have DIY’d their way through 3 homes. And by together, we mean, she is the dreamer and he is the doer. Once she gets some crazy idea in her head, he usually brings it to life… or brings her back down to earth! She has been getting more hands-on though over the last several years with his help (see the aviary & little free library project).
They are embracing retirement and finding things to keep them busy. He loves woodworking and she loves spending time in the kitchen, gardens and with her new obsession - her chickens. She recently went back to school to become a Chef and hopes to one day have her own tea room! They love their laid back, up-north lifestyle, but look forward to trips back down state or cross country to visit kids and grandchildren whenever they can. They love traveling, but due to their prior busy work schedules haven’t been able to do much of it, but that is about to change!
They look forward to sharing their journey into retirement with you and hope you find inspiration for your next DIY project, that trip you want to take, recipes, or maybe even a story or two along the way to brighten your day.
Trish & Troy are looking forward to enjoying the next chapter of life in beautiful NE Michigan!
I got up early to usher in the first day of retirement. So excited to wake up to this view every day. Enjoy this short clip for a moment of serenity...
Not sure who was enjoying the sound of waves hitting the shore more; me or the crane!
Our view heading down the Mississippi River on our way out to sea for our Caribbean Cruise. Our ports of call were in Jamaica, Grand Cayman and Cozumel.
*** WARNING*** My writing style can best be described as chaotic, long-winded and in some cases, "wait, can you even call that a blog entry?" to "she needs to go back and retake English!" Still, you may find some inspiration if you can get past all of that. My goal is to contribute to helping others in my own small way... not be recognized for my writing. Enter if you dare....
