Thinking Moving

Benjo, that house would sell for $350,000 in Massachusetts and be sold the first day. No lie...

JC,

Thats quite a nice post about your time in Big Sky country all execpt your experience with the neighbor.

This life you have and are living is what most could only hope for. Mine two has been quite a journey and now I wish to locate to a place my son can start his journey from. I know he already has a good home here but there is more I want him to experience in the open..

He can always return if this is what he wants when he grows but I figure as long as he is young why not give him the choice and chance...

gonfishn - I never had the pleasure of visiting Yaak. However, I have met several people who were either raided, arrested or both. You know why. Exciting little place.

Back in the late 1970's there was a huge influx of people moving to Oregon from Southern California. They would sell their place in Orange or Long Beach for $400.000, move up here and buy a place that was twice the size of there previous home for $100,000. or less. It really was tough on folks who lived here, tough to watch and wish we had that kind of money. Such is life. Gotta to the best we can with what we have and who we are.

"Don't Californicate Montana"

JC as a life long Californian(minus 4 yrs. searving in this nations armed forces) I know exactly what you mean. I grew up in a small Northern California fishing/logging town where everyone knew each other. In the early 1970's we had a high influx of people from the city moving into our area. They sold property at inflated prices, drove the property prices up in our area when they bought and then began to wine about not having all of the luxuries of the big city. Slow but sure, one by one they got what they wanted. When I go back to my hometown, now all I hear are complaints about how it isn't like it use to be.

Bottom line is Californians go to a different area and expect the area to conform to them instead of them conforming to the area.

OK Steve I have my bullet proof vest handy

I know and felt JC's post deeply for how it was written, a fine tribute indeed. JC my comment about your neighbor of course was feeling bad for him , this would be very very rough for any one having to do this sort of thing.

And yes 2_left_hands I think what you wrote
is right on the mark, I have no right answers for the way some people whine
about things and don't want to do
a thing to make them better for themselfs
or others.
Your Quote: "Bottom line is Californians go to a different area and expect the area to conform to them instead of them conforming to the area."

This is true of people in general not just one region" Alot of us in one way or another are creatures of complaints and sterotyping..

I made a choice long ago to live my life
careful not to step on peoples toes and
lend a hand whereever and whennever I can.
