For most of us there are really only 2 times making a long move is possible.
One would be when we are young and single, but most of us haven't developed enough brains at that point to do it.
The other is after the kids are gone (and moved far away), and the inlaws have died.
Otherwise we tend to stay put and complain until were too old anyway.
I lived in PA for 64 years, most of them were very long years, at least for me.
7 here and 5 there would be very nice.
