      Recently it occurred to me that my love of mystery writing and British mystery tv shows might give me a direction for my retirement this year:  What if I went to Private Investigator school and got my state Private Investigator Class CC license?
 
      Actually, what got me to google this idea, was the fact that I love it when someone has a little problem that I can possibly solve.  I'm also intrigued when I "overhear" a tidbit of information and search to find the story behind the story.  It's fascinating to me.
 
 

 
     So I located several places that actually train people to be PIs here in Orlando and through online training.  After much searching through one school's catalogue of offerings, I realized that it is targeting students who are still in high school...
 
     But wait, there's more.  City College, in Altamonte, actually has the coursework I would need to attain this license.  However, the cost is right up there with University prices...so maybe I will rethink this after all.
 
     In the meantime, I'll continue reading mysteries, watching British mysteries, and listening for the latest "news."  Let me know what you think of this latest idea for my newest career move.
 

I'll be going shopping for my Miss Marple detecting clothing soon...bring my knitting!
