In reality, with my job history I shouldn't have an issue being able to at least make some money if we decide to stop somewhere for a few months to get a feel for things before moving on or finding more agreeable housing if we want to stay somewhere longer.

The most recent Hattin release was the first "production" run. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to when Emerson does new runs, but the fact it is still on the website means it is promising there will be another.

Join The Emerson FB groups. Most traffic for Emersons probably.

The info pages are the FB Emerson groups. Used to be USN, but that is a deadzone these days. Just be forewarned if you go to the FB groups, most of the people are kind and helpful, but as with life, there are always a few assholes.

I’m full of great information just waiting for someone to ask.

Ask me where the world’s largest theater organ is.

Go ahead.

I’ll tell you anyways.

Carma Labs in Franklin, WI

Hope you find what you are looking for, but not too soon. Most of the fun is in the hunt, not the having.

Unless you marry a blonde

Is it wrong that you getting a horse drawn plow stolen by an Amish dude is hilarious to me?  Just seems very unlikely and ironic. Is there a large Amish population there?

Talk to my buddy who's a detective and you'll get a different perspective, but that's probably the same everywhere.

As far as being an "outsider" you could ask @InquisitiveSpaniard what his take is.  From my perception it's not really a thing unless you're from Chicago and are just mystified and aghast that we don't live exactly the way you did in Chicago and levy to turn us in to that.  Those people tend to get the cold shoulder.  But I may be a bad one to ask because I assume people think about it the way I do, which is I don't really give a shit where you're from, what color you are, who you know, who your daddy is/was, what your native language is as long as you speak passable english, who you fuck (as long as it's a consenting adult) - IF you generally align with what I consider makes a "generally good person."  IE you're not about entitlements, leftism, and are more or less live-and-let-live, I'll get along with you just fine.  There's definitely cliquish shit that goes on here, I've just never really participated in it because I think it's stupid.  But while I've been an outsider to those cliques I've never really been the "new guy."

Should our country slide into interesting times I have no intent of bugging "out" anywhere if that says anything.  Far prefer my chances banding together with most of the people here.

I think a big part of my issue looking at places is that I feel like I only get to do this once and I want it to be perfect. I think both of those are wrong, I just have to work it out in my head.  My wife thinks we should just go ahead and sell the house, buy a trailer and spend a couple of months (and stick to a strict financial budget) traveling to spend time in the places that we think we may be Interested in.  I'd love that kind of vacation but it's not without risks.
