They talked about Oregon for a while but it never materialized I believe because of the other bids for the city pairs. About a year ago I was told the reason we haven't moved west is due more to the lack of airplanes than to lack of motivation.

If you're looking into STT/STX, there's a free weekly classifieds paper called the Island Trader that was very helpful, can be picked up at most gas stations/convenience stores down there. Spent a lot of time on craigslist and various other real estate websites, but 15 minutes with that paper making some phone calls turned out to be much more productive. We were able to negotiate the lease length/price also. Same with a vehicle if you're looking into one, don't be afraid to low-ball any offers, just the way things go, at least in the USVI from my experience.
