If I may ask, what prompted your move from Hawaii to Montana? Did you vacation there and fall in love with it? By the way, I love your new avatar. What's not to love about a picture of a beautiful young lady by a beautiful blue lake?

Michael, we've chatted some in the past about your reasons for moving, but I didn't realize how grim things were looking for HI. Such a shame, I have always pictured it as an island paradise (and guess it was).
I'm so glad you guys found a place you love and that is so perfect for all of you!
Since I joined BYC, I have thought of you as a top-notch educator, and so it comes as no surprise to me that you taught high school. I found your explanation of the move to be quite enlightening because, honestly, I had no idea Hawaii has as many problems as it does.
Funny thing...just the other day, I was telling a friend that I dream of moving to one of the VERY three states you mentioned (though my husband and I agree that Montana is our favorite). Low population density and abundant natural resources is so important, especially in times of economic crisis...and I DO tend to look ahead to "what-if" crisis scenarios. Based on what you shared with us, I am so glad that you and your family made the move. From a survival standpoint alone, notwithstanding the amazing natural beauty that surrounds you, I would say that you are in a great place!
