Thank you. My brother in law's situation is a bit tricky. He's got 3 kids (13,15,17) and a wife to move. Select baseball ends in July so they are shooting for August...but school starts early so their window is tight. His kids have been raised with a sense of adventure. The 17yr old girl is a big-time softball player and the 13yr old boy is a great pitcher. They want to make sure they get into a community with good sports opportunities (and decent kids in the school).

We'll be making a recon trip in April and/or June with the hope of a May trip to Frontsight for some more handgun training. As we get closer, we'll touch base.

He is squared away. He's 38 and been working since he was a kid.
He currently runs road crews for the county but works "too fast" for their liking which is normal for the rest of us.
He runs just about any sort of equipment from excavators, brush cutters, dump trucks, etc.

It may take us a bit to get adjusted to the lower cost of living. A good wage there may sound pretty low coming from here, but I think he will be ready to roll if he can link up with some good folks.

My first thought is to stay out of Dallas by an hour, but we may have 1-2 years of post house-mess bad credit so no time to be picky.
