Low cost of living+ great salary= live like a king:rock: :()1:

I'm sure Boise has it's perks. Have you visited the Idaho state website. See what the state has to offer other than snow drifts. :D

It's not my first choice, but I do like working.:roll:
Plus, it meets my long term goals, home ownership.

Housing prices in ore-gone are too high. An I do lie smaller towns (I can't believe I said that).

The big downside, no ocean nearby:damn:

Ha, there is a new twist in all of this. I have a new interview with a second company, not in boise.:hmm:

But the more I think about boise, the better I like the prospects.:hmm: I could afford a really nice house there, with a big yard.

Big salary+low cost of living= cool sports car for me to commute to work in.:yep:

the other prospect

bigger salary+ high cost of living (housing)= crabbing boat for ol' mcbee:hmm: .

Did some repairs years ago at the Naval nuclear power training facility in Idaho Falls. Disgusting place. There must be a Sanitarium near by or something like that. I was eating at a Diner and a bus load of severly deformed people came into the Diner. Please, I have much compassion on these folks and have a daughter with cerebral palsey, so I am not making fun here. One young man had a pointy head with blisters all over it. The back of his head had what looked like an appendage growing out if and was the size of a softball. They sat in the booth next to me. The woman who was supervising them kept telling all of us it is OK and they come to town once a week to the diner and to the park. Noted to self to avoid those days. Well, i was just about done with my country fried steak and gravey, when the pointy headed dude started to yell and scream. He was grabbing at the softball thingy on the back of his head and it ruptured green and yellow puss all over the table. I about hurled on the spot while I watched the waitress and supervisor attempt to clean up this goo. Every time I order country fried steak this memory come to the front burners of my mind. But, yes i think you just might enjoy Idaho.:yep:

an update
 
Okay, so i survived my trip to Boise. It was much larger than what I thought it would be. Plenty of stuff to do. Although, flying in it looks like Afghanistan. (high mountain desert). I survived my job interview:hmm: (hopefully). there was some excitement though. There was a huge grass fire (which I saw:o ) that burned down 9 houses and a person died in the fire. Scary stuff.
