Anyone with opinions on this please chime in.

Again, this is another one of those decisions that is a ways down the road, but it’s good to start planning ahead.

Where is there good job opportunities?


We are thinking about combining households and where we might ultimately want to live long term.

This is a difficult decision since we come from different parts of the country, and we know that you all all do want us living near by.

We’d like it to be someplace with open spaces, and turkey shooting, or at least someplace close enough that we could drive to where someone has a trivate tract of land for hunting.

I am glad the military will be moving part of our stuff eventually. 

I heard that in Canada, it’s all way goofed up.  Like in Quebec, officially July 1 is moving day. Well, not officially, but functionally since because it’s then that it’s the ending of people’s 1 year leases, eh?  So over 200,000 people potentially moving on the same day. Oh my gosh. Can you imagine.  That’s when it is also Canada Day so people have the day off and can move.  Everyone with a apartment or condo all trying to get moved, all trying to get their friends to help them, and all trying to find friends with a truck, or some kind of SUV or moving vehicle. Arg!
And of course those renting a truck for moving no doubt find out that it costs a whole lot more than any other day of the year. 

The other thing, of course, about moving is where there will be jobs available by the time we move.  I heard that Michigan, South Carolina, and somewhere else are the places with the highest unemployment.  And we all know that people are getting laid off everywhere.

We’re thinking that if we can at least hunt for some of our food that this will help pay for itself. And it will help decrease our grocery bill by not having to buy so much meat.  I don’t much like feathering some fowl, but I guess I can do it if I have to.
