So, where to, you ask? Montana.
Montana?!
Let me explain.
In our continuing efforts to survive [I know, we have crazy high aspirations] we have again come to the conclusion that California is not the right place for us. The jobs are sparse and the cost of living is high. Not a good combo for those of us who are not independently wealthy. We considered Southern California and Austin, Texas before settling on Whitefish, Montana. While Southern California is great for jobs, we were not prepared to deal with the traffic and high-stress life. And Austin? Well, lets be honest - I loved the idea. Christian, not so much. So, Whitefish. My mom and sister have lived there for about a year and we can live with them [check], there are descent job opportunities [check], and the people there value their quality of life [bonus].

So, on May 3 we will embark on our 1,090 mile trek to Montana. We hope that this move will be far less eventful and far more successful than our Seattle attempt.
Wish us luck!
