Good Luck on your move. Be careful where you decide to go! The house should sell quick, if its in decent shape.
...A Washington Post investigation revealed $2 billion worth of government contracts given out, but only 3.8 percent are done by companies in Alabama, 2.8 percent in Louisiana and just 1.8 in Mississippi...
... Kent Adams thinks that's just fishy.
Adams Home Center in Yazoo City thought it had two sub-contracts to supply 450 portable classrooms to the Gulf Coast but an Alaskan Management Company pulled the rug out from under them.
"We were ready and capable of doing this project and it was taken away from us," said Adams.
Adams said the Akima Corporation, which has no experience supplying classrooms, was going to do a $24 million deal with Kent Adams' Yazoo City business to buy and set up the portables.
But Akima, out of Alaska, cut him out of the deal but took the contracts to his suppliers in Georgia and California.
"With us not only being from Mississippi and Yazoo county, you take somebody from thousands of miles away and they end up with the money," said Adams. "We could have created numerous jobs with this."..
The problems are just as bad in DC. (Isn't the chairman of the Senate Apropriations committee from Alaska? hmmmmmm)
Thanks for the kind wishes. I don't anticipate any problems selling the house.
As for where I'm going? I'm semi-retired but still do some consulting work on the side so I can go pretty much anywhere. Looking at several areas right now. St. Mary's/Brunswick, GA area, northern FLA and Wilmington, NC.
Hate to leave the area where I grew up and have many friends, but I can't support this state's crap any longer.
