mr4pt is your club the one that is near garfield? i met some guys in a club near the lodge on whitney mt a few years back.
p-tone there are lots of jobs up there . i went to work for wal mart aviation as a mechanic. i loved the area but in the end it wasnt financially feasable for my wife to take any jobs she was offered. we would have taken a heck of a pay cut. and the housing market there ain' t cheap. like hot springs where i live now you pay!
oh and as they get older you' ll take those little vacations. i have three and i love them dearly but love the little times i can get away. the only problem is my 13 y/o thinks he has to go with me now. ahhh not to bad. i' ll just be glad when he can clean his own deer!
