rjxj -- Thanks for the purchasing info and advice, much appreciated.
Old-Biscuit -- Thank you for pointing out the financial obligations. I knew there were things I was overlooking. It's not so much that we're trying to live more cheaply, it's just that we're looking for more freedom and a different approach to things. Thanks again for your insight.
Does anyone have thoughts on the ease or difficulty of finding work in a new place when you're not currently living there? For example, if you're camp hosting in Florida for the winter and want to spend the summer in Montana, have you found that an employer will hire you from afar, or do you generally have to go to a location first and then look for work?
