We will be on the lookout for wildlife of all sorts.

I'll still be making Dave pull the boat out, even when he's an old bugger.

Yep.

I will definitely put my casting skills to good use (and catch that night's dinner, all while wearing my trusted red flannel shirt).

We'll prove the theory that food tastes better while barefoot and near water.

We will definitely drink Gimlets made in a big-ass cocktail shaker, just like Martha.

Chances are good I'll rock headscarves and paint at least one of my boats a bright color.

We will go sailing with our friends.

When my financial advisor asks me what I want my life to be like when I retire, I always say I want a house on the lake. And a sailboat (preferrable one I built myself). And an old Woody (or vintage convertible). This is where I will compile my thoughts and inspiration for my someday life (which I hope comes sooner rather than later).
Happy dreaming.
