RandyR Posted July 16, 2009 Share #77 Posted July 16, 2009 Brad, You might check AF contract jobs at/near Arnold Air Force Engineering Center at Tullahoma, TN. Thats about 50 miles west of Chattanooga, and beautiful country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wkboard Posted July 16, 2009 Share #78 Posted July 16, 2009 Brad and Lonna, I am sad to hear of your job loss. (or their loss actually!!) I also applaud your attitude, but what I know of you two, I am not surprised by it! Why don't you just retire, and have Lonna open up a cheescake store/ Dairy Queen? You could lay back and take it easy while she works. Ok, I could'nt resist!! Sorry Lonna. I know you two will come out better in the long run, and you have my support, whatever you need. Someplace is going to get some new Good People. Maybe you should reconsider and join us at the Hub rally? It would be really good therapy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArticusMedicus Posted July 16, 2009 Share #79 Posted July 16, 2009 Hey bro, I just had a thought.... No matter where you go south of Ohio, the road will be a damned sight better. The back woods county mountain road in TN are, as smooth as I-75 is. Art~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBJ Posted July 16, 2009 Share #80 Posted July 16, 2009 Thanks everyone for all the well wishes! I do know where ever we do end up, we will have family there, thanks to the VR family! We will end up where the money shows us will be the best, and where we can both get decent jobs. And there are better roads for riding with an extended riding season! And thats NOT in Michigan!! Now I think I need to create a new cheesecake in your honor.....whats your favorite jelly? Strawberry? MMmmmmmmmmm Peanut butter and Jelly cheese cake ! Sounds yummy !!! You should also try cheese cake with Butter Pecan frosting (Like you put on German Chocolate Cake). Its fantastic! Say in Touch Both of you.

I have a simmiler story going on here. My wifes company isnt doing the greatest and Ive heard im getting laid off for the year after we finish this job, and hope for stuff to break loose in the spring. My daughter Nicole who some may remember, she went on a couple M$E's with us is gonna finish her schooling in Cleveland Tennessee. So were moving her down there on Aug 21. My oldest daughter lives in Durham N.C. so were thinking of trying to find work somewhere in between them. Been a wild summer so far for us and soon the wife and I will be home alone, first time in 25 years. Really gonna be great Gonna be hard to leave but more riding time! better roads! and Ive even heard I can sell my snowblower and snowmobile lol Best of Luck Brad and Lonna, and hopefully we'll ride together again soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still marketable at 43, but once I get past 50 it will be a lot harder to go through what is happening to me right now I moved south at 23, that was 28yrs ago during the last big recession. Smartest move I ever made, besides marrying my wife that is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
