We decided! Next week, we'll be loading our worldly possessions onto a truck and moving to a tiny little town in the mountains, just outside of Boulder, Colorado. We found a cute little place to rent, but have no idea what we'll do for jobs -- we're going to a place we'll love, and then we'll find jobs, which I hope isn't as difficult as I think it might be.
Hopefully sometime soon we can do a Colorado GC gathering, since we know only two people in the whole state. This should be an adventure!

From what folks tell me, Boulder has a thriving ski population. So you are going to where folks will be hiring left and right...
From what I understand, it is very difficult to get the ski lift jobs that pay quite well because of the "competition" involved. Most of the lower wage paying jobs with no benefits are in the food service industry. But that will be well until the following summer. This ski season is looking very good!!!
I am not sure of the expense. I know SoCal is ultra expensive now. So everything is inflated till Cali gets a new governor... But, the surrounding states are that bad in pricing--relative to California. So you might get a decent deal while living there...
I say do a Monster.com search and see what you get and submit information that is applicable to you...
Good luck and best wishes on your endeavors...
