I might be throwing the dart again very soon. I can hardly wait for the weekend.

And do a little research. If you dont like snow/cold, someone should have told you there are winters in wisconsin.

What in the world do you do for a living that allows you to move biannually based on random dart throwing? I think I'd rather just wander until I stumbled across a place that fit me for two years, assuming I had the ability to do so. Do you really just close your eyes and leave it all up to chance, or do you actually aim the dart in a certain direction? Just curious...

True we've had more snow than normal, but "every other day"? Hardly.

I own an Internet based company. I blindfold myself before throwing the dart,its alot of fun. My life is never boring. So far i have no regrets about where i have lived,its only 2 years then off to the next place.

Wow, I was shocked to see that you actually made the move...I mean, not because moving every 2 years isn't possible or plausible, but because it sounded more like someone posting on a forum for the heck of it. That's really cool that you can do that.

That's for sure. But of I had the funds to move every two years, I would definatly consider parts of the country where it doesn't snow or below 40!

Screw that. If I win millions in the lottery, I plan to establish my primary base of operations in upper Wisconsin. Not only is Wisconsin a great place to be in the summer with all the lake activities, it's also a great place to be in the winter. It's amazing to watch the Northwoods come alive in winter as people pour out of their cabins to sled, snowmobile, cross-country ski, ice-fish, conduct ice trials on frozen lakes, and even dog-sled; and then gather around a fireplace in a lodge or tavern in the evenings. It's admirable to watch people up there use their imaginations make the best of the brutal winter weather and turn it into a grand ol' time.

Winter is definatley a beutiful season, no argue there. Just 6 months of it is too much. I mean, I enjoy the scenery of winter, but maybe just for about a month, tops. I'm already anticipating summer.

How about the tornado that went through Loves park area today and headed to Poplar Grove.... what do you want, snow in January or tornado's???

[exberwynite]

Am looking at Roscoe also. Any problems with the city water / sewerage?? Any suggestions on new homes / subdivisions to stay away from?

Any opinions on Contry homes vs 3 Hammer... also considering Woodfield homes.
