We leave when it is cold in the Canadian winter!!! January 8 - April 13, 2008 we were entrusted with a beautiful home in Hilton Head Island, SC. The owners were cruising on the QE II for three months. Not only did they leave their home, but two precious dogs, Ford Explorer, BMWZ3 and golf cart plus responsibilities to pick up mail, enter the cheques on Excel and take the $$$ to the Bank on their behalf. Distance is no object...it is a long way from Saskatchewan to South Carolina, but for long term, it is insignificant If your home is located in a beautiful setting,a beach,shopping, friendly neighbours, a library, restaurants, and warm weather, this will be amenities we would enjoy. While looking after your property and personal possessions, we require a computer with high speed so we can access our web based Your home will be kept immaculate and if you have pets, they will be lovingly cared for as far as their strict diets followed. Some gardening and yard maintenance keep us busy out in the fresh air and sunshine.
Mary enjoys a brisk walk in the morning so walking areas are also appreciated.
Scotty and Mary are definitely not 'joined at the hip'. Sometimes Scotty is with her, other times he might be on a mining contract somewhere in the world. He is a quiet man who enjoys simple pleasures, is fond of animals and loves birds as well as being mechanically and technically skilled.Mary's career was focused on tourism, travel and hospitality.
We are both non smokers and wouldn't accept a home which would be left with evidence of the dreadful obnoxious weed.
While we are both in good health and enjoy getting away to warm climates, we may as well keep on keepin' on!!
Usually we get out of Canada by mid November and return by late April. Two of our favourite countries are New Zealand and Australia and we have enjoyed many winters in the sunbelt of United States. We have excellent references which we will provide once an interest is shown by potential property owners.
