Chris and I are having an employment fair right in our kitchen. We're prepping several applications to mail out, trying to land a job for next year. So far he will be applying for jobs in:

-Memphis, TN
-North Manchester, IN
-Rochester, NY
-Saratoga Springs, NY
-Tampa, FL
-Sewanee, TN
-Hiram, OH
-Waco, TX
Garden City, NY

Wherever we end up, it looks like we will be driving across most of the country to get there. Of course, we're hoping somewhere close to our parents, which would be TN or FL. I'm not too keen on NY, although I have no reason for feeling that way. We'd be near my dad's parents if we lived up there. That would be cool, since they've never met my kids yet. Imagine, Chris and I have lived in every corner of the country except that one.

Uncle David ( David Dalton) lives in Schenectedy N.Y.. Rochester NY is probably 200 miles west. You would be able to attend the Hill Cumorah Pageant (usually held in early August) and perhaps travel up to Vermont to Joseph Smith's birthplace. Niagra Falls would not be that far away. Aside from the taxes, politics, and toll roads it's not too bad there. There's a lot of farm country and the scenery is great, especially in the Fall. Bill

I'm sure it is a beautiful place to live. I suppose I just assume that New York has a high cost of living. Spokane's cost of living is just about right for us. It would be nice to live near our extended family up there though, and visit the church historical sights. I hadn't thought of that perk. You could come visit us and we could all go see it together! That would be fun :)
