I received an email notifying me that I'm being interviewed for a position at Robins AFB, GA next Thursday morning (via phone). They'll send me the questions 10 minutes in advance. I've been applying for jobs in Florida and GA for over a year now. The position is a lateral move (GS-12) and will actually be less expensive to live in GA than in the area we're currently in. We've been in the northern VA area for over 15 years and I've been in my current job for over 5 years (6 this coming June).
Will just play it by ear and see what happens and that God will have his hand in whatever takes place. I know that he has plans for me in the near future and that it will be a move to where it's cheaper to live. I know that moving from this area, I'll miss all the friends we made but we won't miss all the traffic congestion and other headaches.

I lived in Macon from 1990-1997 and it was decent enough. It's about an hour to hotlanta and maybe 2 & 1/2 hours to the beach so you can always find something to do. Macon and Columbia, SC have to be the two hottest (huimid heat) places I have ever been. I have heard that Macon has gotten kind of ugly due to a couple of large blue collar employers shutting down coupled with some racial tension. When I was there, coming from the Nashville area, I was really struck by the apparent lack of a middle class. There was an enclave of really well to do people and then a ton of poor people. Geico and Progressive Insurance are both there and they may have added some more mid-level jobs since both of those companies have really taken off since I moved back to TN. I know Warner Robbins a military/aerospace town probably has a lot different dynamic but I never spent much time there. Those are the two biggest cities in middle GA. Otherwise its alot of flat agricultural land, pine trees and kaolin mines.

My sister used to live in Macon about 3 years ago. If I get the offer, that's where we would retire too since I have about 9 more years to go before I retire the second time (retired from the AF-active duty back in 1990).
