goinhuntn Report post Posted September 27, 2018 Well this has been along time coming. After 20 years of trying to convince my wife to leave communist California, it is finally going to happen! I got a call on monday from my brother in law, he says he is needing a construction superintendant. I talked to him on the specifics, and told him I would talk to the wife and get back to him. I am a small General Contractor specializing in Kitchen & bath remodels and do most of the work myself. My body is getting torn up & I've had a nagging pain in my hip area for about the last 5 to 6 years. Being self employed & going to the doctor to get checked out doesn't work out to well. I finally asked my wife to make me an appointment so I can find out whats up with my hip. I see the doctor yesterday & he says my hip is bone to bone & I need it replaced. My wife tells me take the job your brother in law offered you & quit doing the physical work. So I made the call today to take the job, money is decent & I won't have to physically tear my body up anymore. So to make a long story I am finally coming back home to Arizona & could not be happier!! I have missed it since the day I moved away even though I hunt there every year. It never ever felt like home in California & I have hated it since the day I moved here. My kids are all out of school & moving on. We are ready to start a new chapter in my old stomping grounds & I can't wait. 30 days & counting down to coming home!!! 10 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

goinhuntn Report post Posted September 27, 2018 I must say I definitely don’t have any California ways!!! Hate this state with a passion!! Tried to leave years ago, but life happens & didn’t want to pull my kids out of school. They’re all grown up now. I’m so grateful for the job offer from my brother in law!!! Can’t wait to finally buy a resident hunting license. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Allforelk Report post Posted September 27, 2018 You should re-title the thread “Escape from Kalifornistan”. Make it a themed, Snake Pliskin style escape with the wife as your co-pilot. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
