For those who don't or didn't know, I relocated again. Mainly for work purposes and it happens to be another epic location...but I just had to report in and say there are TJ's everywhere here in Missoula!

I literally have 2 other TJ owners on my street and my neighborhood is loaded with them. My drive to work passes like a dozen or more, the hospital I work at has them all over the place! Even think there are more YJ's than JK's here, and it seems like i'm living in a parallel universe.

:) loving it here!
 
Perfect place for a TJ too!

But damn, how often do you relocate?

I was chatting with him last week, thinking he was still right up the road from me in Washington. Turns out he was long-gone! I must've missed his post referencing another relocation.

Sound like you got a good thing going there, @EJD!

I'm guessing with that many TJ's, CJ's out there, there has to be a few trails to explore then ?

Good luck to your new "home".
I also move a lot, and so I can relate, part of the job, and enjoy exploring the horizon!
It's a bonus seeing lot's of TJ jeepers in your new neighborhood, you will feel like home!

Haha, as I was telling @Squatch, we're kind of nomads. We live small, have no strings attached, and tread lightly. This particular move was for a good job situation for me and my family, so we went for it.

See if you can get us some parts while folks are at work......place orders in space below:
You know this is the birthplace and home of AEV, and this is the Treasure State. Who knows what might be out there!

Endless...including ghost towns, 2 national parks and a Badge of Honor trail!

Holy crap, you don't mess around when you move!
Lol, no we don't!

I love being able to see and enjoy the country I live in, and sometimes you do what you gotta do to provide for your family.

Yea, it's interesting how you see a lot of TJs in certain areas. I live in the Twin Cities and while you see tons of JKs, you don't see too many TJs. However, I went on a business trip down to Glasgow, KY, which is a tiny little town and a pretty high ratio of the cars down there were TJs.

If you're into clubs and organized events, there is Montana 4x4 Association / Region VIII Missoula and Montana Back Roads 4x4.
A contributing writer for Four Wheeler Mag., Willie Worthy lives in that area. He and his family used to live in my neighborhood here in So. Cal.
My wife and have plans to move to Missoula in a year or 3.

Haha nice...i'm definitely in no position to buy a rig but if you happen to find any cool AEV parts, hit me up, i'm interested!
I could even help facilitate things too for you or others. I'm a team player. ;)

I've never met Willie but I do have their first book!
What is potentially bringing your family up this way?
 
We are now both retired and just want to get out of Cali. She was born in Hot Springs MT. and I'm native to So. Cal.
When I was a kid, my Parents almost always vacationed in the Northwestern states.
Most of her family is in MT., WA., and OR. And my Bro-in-law, here in So. Cal. will have a place to stay when his family visits us (he's a Jeeper too).
