Re: Need advice -- trying to move out of California

Hello San Anton Bob!
You mentioned carpenters but failed to mention your line of work. The first
question I would have is what unique talent or product are you offering to
the marketplace?

Certain States have more than enough of certain skills/products and other
States are begging for them.

Maybe you could give a quick profile of what it is that you do.
