Here is the deal. It looks like I am going to get offered a job with the Forest Service in Jackson. Not great pay but thanks to my military retirement it doesn't have to be. HERE is the rub. I need to work a few more years in the Fed system to get another retirement and although I have been busting butt to get something around the Springs I have had no luck. If I go to Jackson I will be a geo bachelor. Is there ANY way to live on a shoe string around there? I would have to be supporting the household here and would plan on getting a part time job as well but the recruitment officer warned about the $$$$$ for living in the area. Any knowledge and suggestions would be great. BTW, I have until COB tomorrow to say whether to keep me "in the mix" or not.
