7. I'm likely to continue working part-time for a while after retirement.

I have a certificate in rural ministry (as well as a master's degree in theology), and I know there will be opportunities to use my training with congregations that can't afford full-time clergy. Besides, I love the state. Had a great experience there, am concerned about the justice issues of rural communities. So, yeah, going back to Iowa at retirement, if not before.
