They're moving from London, England. He is an IT wizard (he really is good at what he does, I must admit) and she's a mid-wife, hell bent on being a house wife. They love hiking and mountain biking. I don't think California/West would suit them, they're definitely Mid-West/East Coast type people. I'll mention Utah to him tomorrow.
London is mainly city life , high priced , and crowded .. so I'm thinking with him being an IT guy .. Silicon Valley .. it's expensive there too I think , so it won't be a shock .. there's a few California guys here that will prolly know that area or within commuting to it anyhow
What about weather ? if I could start all over I'd be in more comfortable climate year round .. mid west and nothern east coast can have horrible winters .. Utah does aswell
