Welcome to the west sir, you will love it, except the longer winters.
And they are called "snow machines" up this way.
Your current local weather, we're sitting at 4 degrees right now with almost a foot of snow.
We are in Sheridan, currently. Had to stop here yesterday due to bad weather. Taking care of the horses, walking the dogs, and checking the vehicles antifreeze in 14° degrees was much more comfortable than loading the u-hauls last tuesday and wednesday in the 90° heat. Of course taking on and off a lot of heavy clothes is a pain but so is sweat running down your back at the end if october.
This looks like a great plan! Keep us updated; I am definitely interested to see what life is like throughout the year.
I would miss saltwater fishing pretty bad, but the trade off looks good at first glance.
I LOVE to saltwater fish but we were 5 or 6 hours away from that in Tyler anyway. Probably the same in Coeur D Alene. Different from Texas salt but still saltwater.
I was stationed in Spokane, Wa for 4.5 years and just got back to Texas about a month ago. I loved it up there minus the winters, they were a little rough on me. We would visit CDA often as it was only 45 minutes from our house, lots of good local beers up there. Be sure that you look for a store called North 40, it’s like a Tractor Supply and Academy combined! I will miss the summers up there but Friday night my buddies that are still up there all had snow shovels in their hands...good luck, amigo. [emoji106]

Lol. Not for sure if i am going to buy a snow shovel. I have a john deere with a cab and plan on buying a plow for the front and a blower for the back.

Oh yeah, I hear ya! Lots of options for snow removal if you got a tractor [emoji106]. If you like ATV riding be sure to look up Gold Creek Lodge, miles and miles of trails

Very exciting move. My wife is leaning towards the same thing...but we love our property in TX. Congrats. What will you be doing for work?
Thank you fir the kind words! We loved our property in Texas, and the real Texans we still have left in Smith County. It was 90 wednesday Oct. 21st when we finished loading the uhaul...we had our first 90 degree day the second week in April..7 full months of 90 degree weather was a major factor for us. We will give Idaho a try if its too cold we will move again, just seeking an area with four season climate, outdoor lifestyle and conservative politics.
I am a self employed landlord, my wife works for a diagnostic imaging company. She will need to be in Houston four or five times a year, her company will fly her down.
