SNKBYT · 01-20-2013, 09:09 AM

well we're moving at the end of January for my wife's new job (better pay & good benefits). anyone know if there are any members in the area? close by? any good B&Ms in the area?.......guess I'll nave to modify my cane with a little ski-boot on the tip for better traction......already checked the area for Gun Ranges, VFWs, VA Hosp and areas to look for housing. thanks for all the support this past year with all our medical issues.

to a better year

Good luck with the move, Alex. Hope that it is as painless and smooth as possible.

billybarue · 01-21-2013, 07:38 PM

IMHO - VA is the best state in the Union. Very pretty out by Roanoke. I was just out at AP Hill this past weekend - good to be back in my homestate for a few short days.

EricF · 01-21-2013, 07:43 PM

Best of luck with the move and I hope all goes well for you and Cheryl. We will miss ya down here!

You might want to ask Mac or any of them VCM boys about the area.

deadrise · 01-21-2013, 08:57 PM

Roanoke seams cool I never been but have wanted to go it is next to the highest part of the blue ridge mountains in Va,
and coming from flat Florida to a major part of the mountains should be a interesting change for you.
hope you have a safe and fairly effortless move and hope to herf with you at some point
