Jushavnfun, nice layout, but the video is a little out of focus or something, but got the idea of your layout!
Hey Mike, sorry about that. I try better each time I do them. My daughter grew up with iPhones and therefore knows a lot more about it than I do! On a separate note, how is life in your part of the world? The wife and I have begun thinking of places to retire and I am lobbying hard for the Olympic Peninsula.
Hi Dr. Joe, if you don't mind some rain in the winter, and love a nice green place to live. You would love it here. We are right up the hill from Hoods Canal. always green, last summer was a record summer for days without rain and temps over 80 f. You should check it out!
VDr. Joe, your video was jut fine! Nice and clear and fund to watch with your tour! Thanks again!
I dont know about anyone else, but I am retired in the Carson Valley near Carson City, NV. No state income
tax, not much rain or snow, very few annoying bugs. About 4500 feet elevation. Cost of living is moderate.
I really like it here. Gets a bit hot some days, but not unbearable with low humidity. No below zero ever.
Highs usually 90's at most. I only had about 4 ac days last summer. Check it out.
We lived in Reno (Caughlin Ranch) for something like 14 years and, yes, I loved the climate. No income tax and a relatively low property tax rate. We still have several friends in the Minden Gardnerville area, and I owned property at one time near Walker Lake. We left Reno for the assignment in Australia and then came back to the states for positions here at the University of Wyoming. No income tax here either!! And an incredibly low property tax rate, with only a 6% sales tax rate. Housing prices are moderate. All that said, however, I am not a lover of the high plains climate where, for six months out of the year, there is snow on the ground and sub-freezing temps.
@mike g. - the wife and I talked about the OP this afternoon over lunch. For 25 years I flew over the darn thing going into and out of Seattle (Redmond) for meetings at HQ (Microsoft) and wanted forever to go exploring. But, alas, work always got in the way. She was thrilled with the idea and wants to make a trip this summer.
Hi Dr. Joe, I think if you make the trip you will find some place you love! The price of homes are going up, just so you know. I think yesterday they said a price for a moderate home in Seattle was $800,000.
