    I'm 63years old and really trying to relocate here by December 1, 2022 from Portland Oregon. This just makes me long to be there even more. I'm really praying that everything comes together for me! Thank you for sharing.

      AS a history man I must relate to you that your name is famous in the Morgantown area. There were two coeds murdered in 1970 and it is currently being investigated again as a cold case. One of the girls names was Karen Ferrell.

    I fell in love with Morgantown when I went to WVU. After I graduated I made sure to come back as much as I could and still do.

      @Subuwu Life long story short, hubby told his work he was leaving & they offered him a promotion with a pretty high pay rise. Sadly, where he works doesn't have a place in WV. Weighing up the odds we've had to put our plans on hold but give it a couple years, we'll look into it again.

    • @xangiexdx
      @xangiexdx 2 года назад

      @Subuwu Life could you consider renting out your house via a realtor? Moving like this is a very scary thing indeed. I've moved a lot but the 2 biggest moves I ever did was moving from the UK to the arctic circle then 4 years later back to UK, 6 months later I upsticks & moved to the USA. It is scary but also very exciting. If you are really worried though, rent out your house. At least it means you have something to come back to if you need to. Rentals are snapped up incredibly fast in FL so you won't have difficulty there 👍

      A Aardhond it's not a good spot to live in. It's one of the poorest states. Horrible public schools. Epidemic drug problem. I grew up there. Morgantown is one of the best cities in the state. Charleston another. While it's beautiful there are much better states to live in.
