Just stumbled across this and not sure how true it is, but it sure is sad. It says in Texas (where?) and I was thinking of moving there...............

Well, I'm retiring from the military in a few months and not sure where my next job will be, but Texas is one of the places that has work for me and more affordable. I will miss home and family, but you can't really enjoy a ZR-1 here if you know what I mean.............

Probably in the panhandle region - here in the hill country hardly ever any tornadoes. Now rain, that's another story

What kind of work will you be looking for?

Thanks for the tips about the tornadoes. I guess everywhere has good that come with the bad.....including Hawaii.

I'll be looking for Logistics Management work with the government as my first choice. Already no problem for some contractor work waiting on me, but I really want to get back in a a government civilian. Thanks for asking.

Small world, I was a Loggie in the military when I was in too. Good luck with your search.

We just had a small tornado touch down in the Houston area last week-pretty rare.

Yes, it sure is small world. The nice thing about being a Loggie is there are tons of jobs available........just have to be willing to move. I have Texas on the top of the list; they don't tax military retirement too. Thanks for the words of encouragement.

I know what you mean. Traffic is bad around here and the parking spaces are small. My wife is from Palolo area. Were on here on the the rock again...
