This job gets us there. If it's a good fit and I'm happy there, making a bit less won't break my heart. If it's not a good fit, then it's easier to find another job when I'm local, and it always seems easier to get a new job when you have a job. Remote work is also more of a possibility since the plandemic.
A big concern is getting my wife to an elevation that should alleviate much of her breathing issues. Once the fires are out, the air quality there is also significantly better than here on the front range. Being closer to my folks and getting to spend more time with them before they're gone is the other priority. Since I won't be spending all of my vacation time to go visit my folks, we'll also have the opportunity to visit my father in law more often.
