Wow, where do I start?  I left MI when I was 23, having heard San Diego was nice.  I loaded up the Chevy and headed West.  One of many, many adventures I've had.  I've driven back and forth relocating across this country too many times to count, taking my job with me where ever I go.  Atlanta, Chicago, LA, San Diego.  I've done it with cats, a baby, and a 30-year-old car -- everytime all by myself.  I have a CB radio to keep in touch with the truckers and they would always help me when I would break down, overheat, or need any sort of help.  There is nothing like seeing this great country of ours one slow mile at a time.  Colorado and Utah are by far the most beautiful, but treacherous because of the Rocky Mountains.


As far as moving to a city you don't know a whole lot about, you have to contact the Chamber of Commerce for any particular city for all sorts of information about their town --- also part of the adventure.  I always loved being a stranger in a strange land. 


And fear, oh yes, but more bravery than anything.  I've always told people that pretend bravery is the same as the real thing, just fake it and you'll do fine.  If you're young and courageous, I say totally go for it!!
