    Congratulations, Beth! Welcome to the PNW. Most of the newer homes tend to have electric hook-up. Condo and townhomes are usually electric,too. The older homes are a toss up between the two, sometimes they have the option for both. Can you pick up a used dryer while you're there that you can leave with the house? If you have to sell the new one, you'll probably take a bigger hit.

    Yay!!!! Welcome, Beth.

    Beth, congratulations! Sometimes waiting for the news makes it all the sweeter. May your move go smoothly and without incident.

    Why is everyone jealous? If you want to move there, start job hunting! :-)

    Selkie, I'm jealous because I used to live there and would never have left if not for the economy. Collapse + massive layoffs in both DH's and my sector, and I don't think there's a "back to normal," just a new normal.

    Believe me, I've been hunting!
