What state are you in?

I’m in the Peoples Republic of Oregon. I would consider Idaho but its turning blue in Boise and we’d have to go further east, way too far from my elderly folks.

It's getting so there is nowhere to go. My sister is in Boise, and the state used to be reliably red, but it is changing. I can't discuss politics with my sister. She is triple jabbed and I suspect she votes Dem as do both my brothers and their families, all jabbed to the hilt. I don't want to be estranged from them all at this point in my life, so I refrain from all politics and covid discussion. However, they do all know where I stand.

It feels like blackmail doesn’t it? You can be my family if you keep your mouth shut. Coercion might be a better word.

I know how you feel, I'm in Chicago burbs, I'd love to get out of here too ! Florida would be my preference but I have two daughters in their 40s and 4 grandkids and my wife is not ready to move that far just yet. Indiana might be an option for now. Good luck 👍
