I thought you might have been asking for some free labor. Other than that the state is your oyster! I would suggest looking for places with a likely job get a good list together after talking to the companies and pay a visit.

Good Luck

"We are looking for wide open lands with trees next to water."

That is kind pf challenging pairing. Which part is most important? Would you settle for a big river instead of a lake? Can the water be a half hour away?

You might look at the towns west of Billings or perhaps working in Helena and living a bit north or east of there. Or maybe Kalispell or Great Falls could work. All require bending the criteria some.

Or, if you are flexible, you might also look at north of Coeur d'Alene Idaho in a place like Rathdrum.

I guess my request is a bit broad, nevertheless thank you for your help.

I was making a joke that the title to your post could be taking literally that you wanted help in actually moving your furniture and other personal items.

Got it! By the way, when we do make it down there might need some help with the couch. Thanks
