I could have written your last paragraph. My wife wants to move to a free state so bad. But work, children, elderly parents keep us here.
Oh well, a five year plan might see us retire and move. We could be snowbirds and visit the schmoopies (Goldberg’s reference for kids) in summer. She’s dragging me to the Monroe RV show in April. She’s also enthusiastic about my motorcycles and guns, so she’s basically a gem.
It’s very sad...Ive lived in NW (WA&OR) all my life...will probably stay and fight...
We are selling our house in Tacoma hopefully in the next couple of months. We are planning on buying a small motorhome and touring the country over the summer and trying to figure out where the best spot for us is. Then we will be back working on the other house so we can sell it in a couple of years, and then it is sayonara Wahington. We do feel bad to leave friends, family and the grand-kids especially behind.
