I always thought about moving to Wyoming or Montana from here in Alabama. Good places to get away from masses of other people. Of course I'll probably always live right here; I've got ten acres that has been passed down the family line for a hundred years. Alabama's not THAT bad, it just isn't as rural as it used to be.

================================================================= For about 3-4 years tops would be my guess. No offense to my Alaskan friends at all, but I'm figuring, if one were completely honest, I ain't too far off or out of line!! Advanced apologies if I am!!

i dunno. winter time in alaska would likely do me in.
on the other hand, the southland is getting crowded to the point of being unbearable. extreme progress has caught up with us.
maybe northern Arkansas, or southern Missouri. along a good year around stream?

Thats all part of your concideration as to where to be.This is not a simple question for many it will involve some thought of your current status.

I'd disagree, the only problem is the lack of GOOD women, but I've found that to be the case most places.
Average winter temps are in the 30's here and one can stay busy year round hunting, fishing, trapping and shooting.

I think in the lower 48, Wyoming or Montana would be nice. Problem is, all the nice places have few jobs or low pay...that is why it is still nice, no people can afford to live there.

Guess it depends on the caliber of strip clubs you select.

Don't confuse the above with looks.

Was up at our place glassing this am and snapped this pic... 27 miles north from the thriving metropolis of Bozeman. Montana isn't called the Last Best Place for no reason. Course, as one friend says, stick around a few winters and you'll understand WHY it's the Last Best Place...

Actually, as fun as Alaska might appear to be it really does suck most of the time. Rain, bugs, prices, did I mention rain, yep all those things make me long for the lower 48 again.
