How did everyone end up where there at?

We were going to buy a house, but my wifes mom passed away, and left us hers.

So when we retire, or get laid off, which ever comes first, we are moving to California, Modesto actually, her house is a manufactured home, so we are going to move it to my brother in laws property, he has about 30 acres, and plop it down there.

Best part, it has a 4 car garage as part of it, WOOT
