im off to winnemucca nv (to rent, home, contractors)

[monk]

well the time has come, i am off to winnemucca nv on the 8th of feb . I have never moved away from my home town but ill be moveing from 9.29 per hr to about 20.00 or so per hr. My only down fall is leaveing my 5 year old daughter behind as i just get visitation with her every other weekend , and she keeps begging me to stay but i think this is fr the best. I believe it will be a better lifestyle for the both of us. So for now i say farewell and i will keep everyone posted on how it goes.

Be prepared for a bit of a shock. Winnemucca and Walla Walla, WA are quite different. Have you been to Winnemucca yet? Anyway, good luck.

Well winnemucca sucks u were rite i stayed their for about 2 weeks and,
got a job in the mines but their are no places to rent in winnemucca so we had to stay w the girlfriends parents and we soon "after 2 weeks" desided to move back to good ol walla walla.

I'm no fan of living in Winnemucca but two weeks isn't giving it much of a chance.

This could be taken as a warning, Actually living in Nevada is different. The small towns, the isolation, the landscape just doesn't work for some.

For what it's worth, Monk, I spent a few years in Walla Walla when I was a young man (graduated from WaHi and Whitman). Since have traveled to a great many US states and other countries (I am now 70+ years young)...and there are many, many worse places to be than "good ol walla walla". Good luck to you.

I recently read about the denied zoning change in the HRRA area for the cement company to come in and destroy the mountain side has anybody heard anything different that I may have missed

[Allandi]

What is the HRRA area???? There is a whole thread about cement plant zoning in Pershing County.

Shilo, I am a recent retiree and have also purchased improved land near Winnemucca with the plans of building a home. I have been in search of contractors for some time. Good luck. They don't seem to be to interested in individual projects.
