relating to running a publishing company from there, coupled with the
astronomical expense of feeding our small herd of horses up there,
and a decided lack of sailboat-friendly bodies of water, sent us back
to Washington state again. So we live here, but *LIVE* there,
travelling north as often as possible.
Like later this week. <g>
As far as the legalities, I don't know what they are, really. I know
there are residency requirements, but I think we travel between the
two states often enough to skirt them for the most part. We all still
carry Alaskan driver's licenses, and three or four of our vehicles
have Alaskan license plates, although several other cars and trucks
(ours and the kids') have Washington plates... Washington has a
pretty high number of Alaskan "snowbirds" though, so people really
don't pay that much attention here. I think there might be more
Alaskans per capita in Washington state than any other, just because
of the proximity, such as it is...
I think it boils down to intent. Which state do you intend to be a
resident of. For me, that's not much of a question. I'll go home
permanently some day. <g>
