Is it wrong to want to live in a home surrounded by mountains, forests and lakes? Well, maybe it's not wrong, but it sure is damn expensive! I have wanted to move west for years, most of my adult life really, and always there was a reason not too. Now, I don't have a legitimate reason, but confound it all - I don't think I can afford too!!! Housing market is too expensive, I kinda don't have a job out there, and the cost of moving across canada is probably close to what I earn in a year. Perhaps I will slip over for a visit this summer and price things out, check the job market, and remind myself why I think I love the west. Ah life, always moving along teasing you with dreams and hopes only to pass them by.
