I'd take that into consideration.

IIRC, you already make great coin.

Is the job more challenging/enticing, or just better pay?
It’s a director level job with better pay and bonus structure than I have now. More challenging and gets me out of my comfort zone a little bit.

It's 183 miles from the greatest brewery in the world, so I feel like that should be taken into consideration.

I loved Iowa.

Coming from AZ, I had never seen so many shades of the color green.

My kids ran free from sun up to sundown.

1000 people. 3 bars. 7 churches.

Everyone gets taught how to weld.

Faith is everywhere and when they're handing you a pulled pork sandwich it's hard not to listen.

Walking tacos.

County fairs.

....

The bad stuff.

Every single line in the opening of The Music Man is truth.

Every single person within shouting distance is deathly curious about your life.

The ice that freezes in November is still there in April.

Your weed costs $50 1/8.

As a population, Iowa drinks a pony keg of Busch Lite per person.

The humidity and the bugs.

That's never a bad thing.

Would this be your last move into retirement?

Or do you think you would go back home?

Lastly and most importantly, how does you babe feel about it? She's the one that has to go up there and make a house a home. How long at your current place?

Des Moines Metro area is nice, plenty of things to do, places to eat, local breweries, etc. Lots of bike trails if you're into that. I'm not but feels like more than half the people I know are. My only complaint about living in Iowa other then the seasonal extremes is no pro sports team so get used to hearing about the Hawkeyes and Cyclones all the time. I used to have Chiefs season tickets for years until kids got older as it was only a 3 hour drive.

Are you still in manufacturing management or was that someone else? I thought you and I had very similar roles but I could be confusing you with someone else.

If you are from Wichita, Des Moines won't be a culture shock, but it is a lot colder in the winter.

Pella is nice to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there. Do get the Dutch letters there though. Good stuff.

Plenty of outdoor activities if you like that kind of thing.

Would I want to live in Pella? No.

But if you lived somewhere like Altoona, Carlisle, or Pleasant Hill you’re looking at about a 40 minute commute. Not terrible but could be a change depending on what you’re used to.

Other than not having the Chiefs or Royals, I would take Des Moines over KC. Plenty of places to eat and things to do, a little smaller and more manageable, and I really have never lacked for things I am wanting here.

Des Moines is quite a bit nicer than Wichita IMO. I would not recommend you move to Pella.

Good people in DSM. Cold weather and moving away from family would be the two draw backs.
