Default Alberta boom...

...well so far we just have average paying government jobs , no boom money there. Interesting feeling watching a 24 year old drive by in a 100k truck he just bought because the old one was dirty. Problem chasing a boom is the later half of people quite often get burned, you pretty mcuh have to have prescience to know to be on the ground before anyone else.
I would like to say to Cleatrac and the others that now you have two friends in Edson. We are moving there for a better quality of life with our son, not style of living . As long as we can get a decent home and not be mortgage poor then average salaries will do us just fine.
We have ordered a very nice modular home but we're looking at 7 months delivery and we don't have land yet. Even they farmers are gouging, 78k for 4 unserviced acres 15 miels from town, come on.
So I need to find that halftrack fellow and tarp it in for the winter. Anyone have a 5th wheel they want to rent for the winter, or sell cheap?
Just got buzzed from my realestate agent and 2001 house , nice but not a mansion, three bedroom bungalow on 9 acres, 15 min from town...$409,000.00...I had better hurry. Even with our modular by the time its ready to occupy will be 340k and no garage.
