Thanks for all the advice for NC. I was a traveler years ago and ended up staying 15 years at the last hospital in which I traveled in Maryland. Trying it once more, going to be at Carolinas Medical Center, in the ICU's (Charlotte). I'm so hoping it goes well...but always keep an open mind, look, listen and learn their ways. How many of you do the tax advantage? Does it work for you? How do you balance having a primary residence and being away traveling?
