Well Praise God!
Finally accepted an offer on my place in Idaho looking at an April 1st closing. Also bonus points the buyer is an idahoan that wanted to move closer to the kids from his place in Ashton so my neighbors are very happy about that. (They were fearful some Californian would buy the property).
Renting in conrad at the moment cause the other half started her job In valier the last week of october and that was the only thing available. I have been living in both states since then between work obligations. Housing choices on the market are few in the area atleast from the standpoint of what we would be looking for so that journey will start now. Possibly build if I can find the right land who knows.
I have lived in a lot of states over the years and never been sad when leaving one until now. I truly loved southeast Idaho, but I expect montana to be just as good. Minus the great falls mcdonalds. Haha
