Hello & Bonjour,

My name is Laurent. I'm a 70 year old retired Long Island, SCPD NY Police officer (no kids) who retired in 2000 after nearly 30 years service and moved to France where I met my French wife and married her a few years later.( I speak fluent French)

I was forced by the rules of the Tax Man to buy a house in NY if ever I expected to spare a good portion of my retirement income; So, I bought a house in a small village of Washington, County in the Adirondacks as soon as I could. My wife and I return to this home several months of each year, every year in the late Spring through to early Fall.

I stumbled upon your story on YouTube just today and found it fascinating. I looked up your name and your approximate location on Google Earth and was astonished that I found you so easily. I was curious to know in what county you established yourself when in upstate New York? RSVP

I lived in Columbia County. The taxes there were killing me. $12,000 per year for a big farmhouse on 35 acres. Out here in SW Texas I pay just a little over $300 per year for my little house and 100 acres of land.
