tough to fin d a decent place in Montana now for 500 to 600 k

Not Sand Point?

Not many keep a toilet in their front yard either. Lotta places folks would frown on that.

That's as much compliment as I can muster after two nights without sleep and possible food poisoning.
I'm glad you are impressed Paul.

It's not you. You're not on that list MadMooner.
St. Bernard is though.
BTW, nice catch.

Avoid HOA's if the membership is more than just you. That way you can get unanimously elected president and only you can vote on dues and fees.

Sorry Chris. Not you either. I blurted out the first thing that came to mind since it was maybe 4am and no sleep.
I should have stopped to think that there's probably a hundred of us on here that fish. Correspond anytime.

I can't think of much that would entice me to move farther east than the foothills of the Rockies and maybe the Dakotas. It would take a lot of money guaranteed up front and be a temporary situation guaranteed up front.

Politics are a thing, taxes are a thing, no way around that. There is an amount of politics and taxes I'd put up with if the tradeoff is good enough hunting and fishing ... there are no utopias, no place that is perfect. It's a question of finding the most advantageous, or least disadvantageous, compromise.

Oregon is home. There are issues but I've grown up playing the system to get what I want out of it. It would be hard to leave. At the same time, not knowing the ropes, it might be hard to get started in. My first choices if I were to leave would be Idaho, Montana, possibly Wyoming, and some of the more mountainous parts of Nevada and Utah. Could consider parts of Colorado, New Mexico, and maybe Arizona ... maybe even California ... but probably not Washington. I don't know enough about real Alaska vs dream Alaska to be sure 'bout that one.

Eastern Oklahoma?

If you like cutting grass and dealing with bugs and gators and heat year round.

I'll take a little bug-less cold, some snow removal, brown bears and moose through my yard any day.

The down-side to Alaska is Anchorage. Can't get away from politicians no matter where you go, worldwide, I guess.

Remember, if it gets cold enough you can be Christ-like and walk on water.

Few places beat the scenery here.

I'm IN New Mexico. I have a 10,000' mountain literally out my back door, and I can see Mt. Taylor 70 miles away out my front door. Flatland makes me claustrophobic. But I'm tired of the politics here, the real lack of water, and the overall culture is no longer desirable. At the same time, couldn't move somewhere that would make me an instant felon for the various bits of plastic owned. I've decided I need rain more often than twice a month.

Hell of an idea!

SWMO is closed now. We met our quota.

That's why most just want to visit there. My son lives there with his wife. He's in the mountains most weekends.

Wyoming is a cold, miserable , windy place , winter lasts 9 months here, you would not be happy.

I hear Montana is very nice.

I thought it was still open as long as you weren't from either coast. Anyway I have thought of SW Misery myself. And I already live in Misery. Be Well, RZ.

anywhere in Texas.

We are in a winter storm warning in my part of Montana for the next several days. Just sayin!
Wyoming would be okay though

I can’t imagine living somewhere that is so dry that I would have to consider moving to get to a wetter climate.
