Topic: RE: OT: May relocate to your state, tell all!
Hi Kathy,
I live in Central AR, just outside of Little Rock. We moved here almost 6 years ago from San Diego....what a change! But....it's one we would do again in a heart beat.
Housing is certainly less expensive, gas is usually about thirty cents cheaper per gallon than what my family pays at home. Tornado season is no fun, and they can get some pretty impressive snow falls in the NW corner of the state, but you're from IL, so that shouldn't bother you. The scenery is beautiful, shopping isn't as great as home, but then, we don't spend $$ like we used to.
We don't regret moving here, and some of our family members would come here too if they weren't upside down in their mortgages. We got out of CA just before the fall of the real estate market.
People are very friendly and have been super nice to us while we were learning our way around. The culture is different than CA, but that was expected and is generally warm and hospitible. Every where you go you'll find someone who doesn't want "strangers" moving into their areas, so when we run into those types we just ignore them. Mostly people wonder why we came here from such a beautiful place and I remind them that AR is just as beautiful as where we lived in San Diego(away from the coast).
Good luck!

Hi Everyone,
My husband has some serious health issues that has lead to him not being able to work. We need to downsize and relocate BIG TIME. AR is one state we were considering. Please if you have time, let us know the good, bad and ugly. I hear the cost of living is good for retirees.... I still work and will do so until I die LOL But he was the big bread winner and our mortgage is now more than I bring home :-(
Any help, suggestions, links, photos and such would be greatly appreciated. We are looking in the northwest corner of the state.
Thanks,
Kathy

Topic: RE: NO MEETING AT BAPTIST THURSDAY NIGHT
Isn't Dr Love great??? I adore him and his staff.
I'm doing well, I'm four weeks out yesterday, back to work( well, when it's not snowing!) and feeling fine. The arms werent as tough as some people said they'd be, but what a difference.
Good luck! We'll compare scars in March. Dr Love will have his own little cheer squad.
