        LOL, the only cartridge ever lost to damage in all my years was to a former cleaning lady. Now I sit in my listening room from the time they get here, til the time they leave.

        Maybe. 🤔

        Our cleaning lady knows to stay clear. Of course, it's incumbent upon me to keep the area clean because don't have a man cave like you!

        They have all been warned but they still feel the urge to do me favors. I can't lock this room like my last one.

                Our cleaning ladies don't go into my study at all (2nd system) and have firm instructions not to do anything past the carpet that ends in front of the main system speakers - the whole system area is a 'no go' zone.

                          Had a place on the Kona Coast in the 70s-80s, but things have changed a lot over there in the time since. Choose your spot carefully - lee side so less rain, not in the middle of tourist mecca but not too far a drive to civilization and shopping. I miss being able to go out and pick a papaya and a lime for breakfast!

                        Most of our friends are on Oahu, as well as the most accessibe medical care (important as we age). Being able to afford something nice on the East (windward) side is the issue. We'll see, it's probably 3-7 years away.

                          I have friends in their 80s that seem to think it is a good idea to move to an island a ferry ride away from ANY hospital. (insert smiley shaking head!)
