It's a pretty nice area and my real estate dollars will go further than a lot of other areas. Etta and I are are small town folk. We lived in Walla Walla for many years and that was bigger than I liked. Wasilla has gotten very populated in the 17 years we've been here. It's still a nice area and way better than living in Anchorage, but the traffic has gotten bad and it continues to grow with no end in site. Good time to sell and move to a quieter, slower paced area.
Our son's widow still lives near Boise and has remarried and has a son whom my wife has claimed as a grandson. She has nieces in Idaho and Oregon and my Mom is still in Walla Walla. Mom is planning to move near us or perhaps even put a good quality manufactured home on whatever property I find. We're going to get some acreage with the home we buy.
