relocating to Indiana

[tomcherv]

Hopefully you won't have any difficulties finding a good source of income. I spent my college years in Indiana, but Minnesota is my home.

You deserve some congratualtions, or your wife does. She sounds like who cares about you and your family. May your move the midwest go smoothly and be trouble free.

There's worse things than living in the area. I'm in Chicago and living over there in Indiana has it's advantages. The fishing in Lake and Porter counties is right good. You have the Rail Cats minor league team in Gary with a splendid ball park. I've driven through some towns there that look like the ones that Jean Shepherd describes in his writing about his youth in the fictional Homan, Indiana...real MidWest towns. Ya got the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore Park, which is very inspiring. You can get into Chicago very easily and several very nice towns in Michigan ain't too far away.

Add to this that the economic woes haven't really affected the area that much so far, so there's still a lot of possibilities for at least maintaining a nice life rather than loosing ground.

So you might be pleasantly surprised.

...and did I mention the Pierogi Fest in Whiting? I didn't?
