Im glad Im not looking at homes like you are. But if I was going to make a move it would be clear out of that State but that is just me.

Sounds like the time to sit back and re-group. Nothing gained, nothing lost. These large life decisions take a lot of time and thought. I don't feel there is any rush for you. As I said before, when in doubt...don't. You will know when the right place/situation arises. Don't take the chance of making a regrettable decision. Kick back in that teardrop, if that's what it takes. You might be surprised by your own conclusions. Take your time, don't pollute your decision process with too much input.
Best of luck for your future happiness!!!

I need to keep marching forward without making any decisions. I have a lot of work to do to get the house ready. Then starting the last week of August I take a 28 day trip to TX and back. That’s when I’ll kickback.

It’s mostly three counties on the west coast that allows looting which is what I want to leave. Move east of the mountains and it’s completely different.

Have a step daughter that lives in Naches,Wash. Pretty nice area west of Naches. I hunted the Royal city Othello area as a kid.

Not to get political but those 3 counties have a big majority of the state's population so they can pass laws, referendums and initiatives for the whole state.

I could stay in Washington. All I really need to do is leave the Seattle area.

This is a split level with seven steps. Same as my rambler.

If you pick up the first one I could sing to you, “since we’re neighbors lets be friends”.

Deer Park has at least four coffee shops of which two come highly recommended by my wife the Mocha queen. You would have a nice short level bike ride into town from that location. I’m about three miles east of town and you would be on the north side. A few miles north is a DNR parcel that is used by many as a shooting range. No charge but it’s gated so you have to hike in a short distance. Not too bad unless you’re bringing lots of stuff. I use a folding dock cart on pneumatic tires to haul my stuff in when I use it.

Deer Park to Nine Mile was my old stomping ground. As teenagers we would get drunk and camp almost anywhere there wasn’t a house. I rolled a stolen car when I was 16 not to far from that house.

I’m driving over tomorrow to see this one.

It’s about the same size as what I have now and I will be able to park everything inside including my teardrop which I will be pulling. I’m too cheap to pay $350 for a room. I’ll stay at a truck stop and shower for $12.

This house is heated with a heat pump and a wood burning stove. I wonder if the pump can keep up with a Montana winter. It is all electric with no propane or natural gas.

The kitchen is kind of odd and needs an island but other than that this plan fits my needs. Everything is on the main floor.

[RanchRoper]

I like that one. You'll need to wear buckskins every day though to do it justice.

[GFK]

Dito! But buckskins, optional.
