NOTTTTTTTT....LOL....
My husband brought home a job app for an opening in Tampa with his company
Should he fill it out? LOL
Does that mean I get to retire

HEY JOE.....How far is Tampa ...LOL.....
Would I be able to take my tanks? I told him IDK if I would be up to a move.....he also brought home openings in a bunc of places....BUT I WILL NOT go to the upper east coast, or north
one other place that I would consider is MODESTO, CA....if I could find it on the map....LOL

I saw your thread title and was wondering how you were going to move all your tanks.

LOl...I'll probably never move :( In all reality, I have thought about it....I hate to admit that cause I really really love my home here...just sometimes I get a little tired of the seclusion.....
and then there is the tanks.....I have a lot of work in them for the time I have had them

Tampa is pretty decent. Like most larger cities, there are a bunch of different areas/suburbs/towns around Tampa, you could find something you're comfortable with. That said, if I had to pick a Florida city, Orlando and somewhere around Palm Beach would be first (excluding somewhere fantasy, one of the Lower Keys, St. George Island, etc).
Nah, to retire you want the Naples/Port Charlotte area.

You could take your tanks. It wouldn't be easy at all, but it's definitely not impossible.

On the bright side.. one of the best fish stores I've been to is right here in Tampa... I go to it every week.
I live pretty darn close to Tampa, but that place is not for me. The roads absolutely suck, the areas are generally pretty trashy.. or there will be some really expensive houses about half a mile from some run-down nasty ones.
You could always live in a smaller place like Lutz, New Port Richey, Wesley Chapel, and then drive to work :)
I'll tell you where all the (still in business)LFS are!

We are about an hour and a half south of Tampa, and Joe is about an hour south of me. hehe
There are some great fish stores, but lots more people. We dont go to tampa often, just to go to busch gardens.

Idk.....the possibility of a lfs, just might outweigh having to move the tanks!!

LOL....YUP....you got that right....
If we ever seriously looked into this, I highly doubt we would want to live in a city...YUCK....I love the "seclusion" it is sooooo quiet
OK...I hate not having any REAL stores, or REAL food, BUT I would never trade my privacy
HAHA we could run around the yard n aked and who would know.....

I moved to the big city, and man I miss the small town. Fortunately we'll be in corpus for a little while for work. And that is smaller. Not small enough, but at least I get the small time feel, having to drive all the way across town to go to a superwalmart...

Corpus was perfect. Big enough to have everything and small enough not to have big city issues.
When I moved here to Los Angeles, my world got really small. It's too big, so I just keep to my own little immediate area.... otherwise known as "My House".

personally I'd fill it out, and send it off... After all you'd get to live by the coast. No state income tax. And you'd get to live by the coast...

TRUE.....What could it hurt....And if he were to get an interview, it could be a mini vacation :)
There was a couple towns in TX that had an opening...Carrollton..WHICH IS OUT....and Edinburg..LOL...On the map it looks like it is on the border of Mexico

Yeah.. it sucks to read what you MAY be getting from online stores and then receive something that is only partially what you expected..
