You're on the eastern side of the state in remote hunting/fishing grounds...small-school high school coverage. Probably not a bad gig for the right person, but this one is not for everyone. Definitely has a small-town feel...it's pretty isolated if you're used to cities, but if you like country this might be a good fit.
