Have you been to the Tulsa Zoo and Living Museum?
I grew up in Tulsa and know all the places to visit, but What I really want is to live in a nice beach city
Sanibel Island, Florida, has beautiful white beaches and lots of seashell searching. 
Florida is number 1 in my plan. I heard you do not pay income taxes in that state
No state income tax means not having to file a state return at tax time!
Sounds great!! Low taxes, great beaches and all that warm weather I am looking for.
There's beaches for everything you want, family time, wave catching, dog friendly, secluded and romantic, whatever you want.
I am sold. I decide to Florida when I retire.
Sarasota is the number one retirement community in Florida, and it's close to Sanibel and Fort Myers, sounds perfect. 
I will start checking houses for sale in Sarasota this weekend.
