Consider this before moving:

I hear you on that one. After three tours to Alaska during the last 20 years this Florida boy would rather be up there then down in the lower 48. I think this year is going to be the first winter we've been through in 13 years with out any snow. It just doesn't seem like Christmas when every thing is still green.
For those looking for snow pics here are a couple (along with a couple of videos) that we took when we PCS'd out of Alaska 13 months ago. The first picture and video are from Watson Lake, YT, while the secong pic and video are from the middle of the Canadian Rockies halfway from Watson Lake to Ft. Nelson, BC. I'm driving the semi truck with trailer and the wife is in her van. The roads were so bad out of Watson Lake (plus the snow kept coming down all day) it took us 6 hours to go 150 miles to where the second picture and video were taken. When we saw the hotel out in the middle of nowhere we said the heck with it and stopped for the night. I had snow chains for the truck and thought I was going to need to put them on for some of the hills but never had to. The second picture shows how the road is following along the side of a large lake. This is the main road (the only road) that connects Alaska to the lower 48 and it's just a small two lane one at that.
Anyhow, warning on the two videos. They are large. One is around 40 megs while the other is about 50 megs.

Costa Rica will probably allow you to use your truck for more than just parades or static displays - heck, you might even get to haul something in the bed...After 54 years of fighting, plowing, hating snow, I've been thinking about a southern move. Costa Rica sounds like a possibility!
I was really hoping for a repeat of February.
If you want more snow Bob, come over here to the shore. Hard to tell how much we have, as the wind has blown all day. I was going to take the Deuce out for a trip to the store, but thought I may regret it being I haven't got wipers on it right now.Doesn't look like we will get much snow this time, only maybe a inch.
Looks like the shore got the most this time. I was talking to a friend in Lewes De. and around 16:00 today he had about a foot over there. I would think not having wipers would make for an interesting drive. I think I will invest in a heater for the cab this year. Back in February when I was running around the inside of the windshield kept icing up and soldier "B", the wife, had to keep scraping while I drove. Kinda looked like the keystone cops going down the road.
