Another question would be why did TR choose his new locations. Why Ingleside TX? Why Manchester NH? CA always made sense to me because he spent a lot of time in that state, but what lead him to the other distant places? Word of mouth, like a friend saying they heard jobs are opening up there? Random aimless traveling and just settling somewhere?
Mentioned this sometime back I know for fact at the time their were several oil field related companies that were building platforms in Ingleside, TX. Right at the time 1977-78, their are also tons of oil field related service jobs that would carry one off shore or even in the land based oil patch. They recruit from all over the country and I know one company that specifically that sought out maritime retired, discharged etc personnel all the way up to Maine and into Canada. I can see Ingelside easily Manchester I'm still miffed unless it was as you said word of mouth.
