Yes we did. Very happy too. It did take us ten years of looking to find what we wanted.
Our taxes are 33% of what we paid in the midwest and we absolutely love the climate and all the outdoor activities. We're in a remote area, that's not for everyone, but we love it. There are several million acres of nothing, some of it starts behind our house.
I've watched DW catch her first trout. She was talking to a mule deer she thought was a statue, it was 10' away from her. We've hiked to some incredible falls and rivers. Some are world class fishing. I watched a mountain lion walking through the neighborhood. Fox, bear, coyotes, elk, eagles, herons, and deer are frequent visitors in the area. To me this is paradise.
Next year there are some catch and release rivers I'm going to hit. This is one I plan on fishing.
