So Why Idaho?
 
 
How does one find Idaho from Hawaii?
That's a really good question.
Honestly, I'm still trying to figure that out myself.
After almost 20 years of "The Rock", we knew this was not going to be for us permanently. Yes, a rock but it was the BIG rock. The Big Island. Of the Hawaiian Islands 6000 TOTAL square mile, the Big Island was 4000 square miles of that. So it was BIG. So when you hear of "Rock Fever" that wasn't the case for us.
Rather: Life on the Big Island= $350-$450 a month for electric (a modest 3/3 home with no air conditioning, gas dryer, solar hot water and gas stove)... and $500-$750 a month for water. A loaf of bread $6.50, a gallon of milk $8-$9.00 (Costco was a bit less, we're talking Safeway here). Just to start.
The State had become very "entitlement" and too liberal for us, and face it, the Locals have always hated us...but I'm not going to bash Hawaii any more than that, albeit, it was time to leave. I could have a blog leaving Hawaii for dummies!
So where does one go (from paradise?).
Being from Alaska, we thought about moving there (we owned land up there). That thought lasted ... more
