Exclamation We are moving... again

Long story short, I'm basically in for a job transfer back to WA to get closer to family. Closer is a relative term- instead of being 8 hours from my folks and 12 from Amanda's, we'll be 9 hours from my folks and 5 hours from Amanda's. Chances are we will be living in the small community of Newport, WA (about 2,000 people, 1 hour north of Spokane on the ID border). I basically got the same job I have now, just in a little bit sweeter spot. There is supposed to be a lot of good trails (both dirt bike and snowmobile) in the area so I'm excited about that. Not too excited about moving AGAIN (this will be move #3 since 2006), having to learn a new area again, and not knowing anyone but I think in the long run it will be better for the family than where we are now. We are hoping to be moved by mid to late September if everything works out the way it should (which rarely happens with the government). I should change my user name to "nomad"...

Dear Mr. Nomad,

With 3 moves in less then 3 years you and Amanda should still have most everthing in boxes, thus making this move MUCH better.

Look on the bright side. We've been in this same house for over 20 years now. If I had to move it would take months to get all the junk out of here. Heck Chase, Uhhh, I mean Mr. Nomad, your striped down for speed moving.

Another great thing about moving is you get to find all those things you thought you had lost. "Wow" that's' where I left my socket set.

Good luck.

I love the area you're moving to! My friend is from Sandpoint, ID and I've been up there 3 times for vacation, lots of riding, huge lakes, awesome snowboarding... you can't beat it!

Ironically, we do still have quite a bit in boxes, but even more that's not. We have this moving/packing thing down to an art now though I'm hoping we'll be here more than 1-1.5 years... MOVING SUCKS.

I hate moving across town, much less to another state!
Good luck on the move. Maybe you can grow some roots this time.

That's the plan. It's been a crazy few years...
Spring 06- Idaho -->Washington
Spring 07- Washington --> Oregon
Fall 08- Oregon --> Washington
Not only that, but we went from almost Canada in WA to almost California in OR, and now are going back to almost Canada in WA but further east (Idaho border). Hopefully we stay put for at least 5 years this time!

Not sure weather to say congrats or sorry Chase.

I am going with congrats on the new job and good luck on the move.

Sorry to hear about the job thing. What kind of work are you into? Lets see if the long arm and big heart of :ATM could come up with any leads.

As far as GMB-there will always be a need to haze the newbs so we'll be waiting for ya!
