Prayers sent.



Charlie

First of all, you are absolutely going to be just fine....You are at your most heightened awareness when the chips are down, nobody can get anything past you that's not real at this point.

Jesus is real, an honest days work for an honest days pay is real....Good folk everywhere in the area your in, real straight up honest folk.

Network in Church, breakfast houses, etc. and let it be known you want to work and stay a while.

I'm pulling and praying for you brother...You have the world by the b@77$....You really do!

Family? As in children?

Find yourself a nice friendly small town, go to the cafe, gas station, barber shop, feed store, etc... where your type people hang out and just visit with folks you'll find yourself a spot to fit in real quickly I bet. I'm not into the God stuff either but I'll be pulling for you.

Sounds like you’ll be better off.
But it’s a shame ya drove past all the gas field jobs in ND.
We’ve lost 4 guys from our plant in 4 months to ND.

I quit my forever union until retirement job in 1984.Drove across the US with a thousand bucks in my pocket,my traps and a 52 international pickup.I stopped in Montana as it was a possible destinationation, found some work,a wife and have never moved on again.I am now retired,still married and have a pair of great sons.At the time Montana was not really a destination for anyone and I mentioned to my new wife as we were driving along the Crazy mountains from Big Timber north what a beautiful place.I wonder why no one lives here?

That all being said it is to tell you that it can be done.I do not know of any specific jobs or places to stay but if you want to send me a message I can point you in the right direction.There are lots of jobs available right now if you have a good work ethic and you can keep your head on straight to hold one.

I'm guessing there are no kids. Should be easy peasy. Sounds like the soon to be ex shouldn't be much of a problem if she's already found someone. Buy them a nice wedding gift and wish them your best.

prayin for ya

promise its amazing what god and tman can do

can ya dance?

I wish you the best. I think you are moving in a good direction. I'm not the praying kind but I'm rooting for you. Lots of good advice above. Folks in Montana, Wyoming and Idaho can spot a real man quickly. You'll find a road. My parent's ashes went into the Gallatin river on Thursday and I spent many great years in Montana and Wyoming.

Good luck.

I'd pm USMC 47 on here and ask what he knows,great-great guy livin the dream in the mts of Montana after a lifetime of servin MERICA and he's been there done that.

also the fall coyote thread on chat is an amazing little family with ties to the areas you are looking at.great group of guys that have helped me through a buncha poop.

good luck to you ,will say a prayer, for you , there lots of work out there for anyone that want's to work

Hang in there bud and take care of yourself both physically and emotionally. Come up with a 3 year plan and write it down.

When you trap are you more successful putting out traps willy-nilly or if you have a strategy and a plan? Go back, take care of business, make a plan and then make the move. You may have a good outcome the way you are doing things now but a little planning will increase your odds of good things happening.

A move like that took NAD's! Good luck man. That would be tough for anyone to do. Those western states have trees also so you should be able to find work.

That doesn’t make a very good story or movie.

good luck.
"...soon to be ex wife and her new fiance."
Wow the ink isn't even dry yet and she's jumped back in with two feet.
Your flight took courage. Shake the dust from your shoes and get back to being you.

I thought " Tough Times Never Last, But Tough People Do! " by Robert H Schuller was a very good story. Try it.

Best advice I can give you is get right with God and everything else will fall into place. Want always be rainbows and lollipops but you will find you'll have an non-moving Rock to strengthen you.

Hey, you gotta come back to MN to vote for Trump! At least, get an absentee ballot! Good luck out there! The air and mountains will cure what ails you, me thinks.
