Hard no to all those places for me as well, we'll figure something out, it's not my bag anymore dealing with this crap, I've got a mountain of orders that have piled up since Saturday, no PO today or tomorrow for me, I'll have a SUV full of boxes by the time the PO is back and up and running again.

I live in Galveston...it does get hot for 1 to 1 1/2 months...in the 90's...rarely going over 100...the farther north you live in Texas...it does get hotter...but of course we do have air conditioning... ;)... hasn't snowed at my house 3 times in the last 25 years...and that was just a dusting...we can have hurricanes in Galveston...but I live 4 blocks from the Gulf of Mexico...the last 2 years....no hurricane systems in the Gulf of Mexico...thank God...and you don't have to live on the Gulf...again...I live 4 blocks from the Gulf of Mexico and have had only 1 settlement for hurricane damage...the cost of living is cheap...utilities...housing...dining out no comparison to California of Colorado...etc...I love it here...you could do worse...Dallas/San Antonio are especially nice...minimal snow...but hotter...

Agree. And here is the best irony - the air conditioning is cheaper to run in Texas than in Maryland!!!!!!!!!!! That is the kicker for me. We have narrowed it down to Texas or Florida and it is going to come down to my better half. She really likes Florida beaches. We will keep the shore house in Maryland and live there 3-4 months (summer) and then all other time in either Texas or Florida. Makes the most sense and best bang for the buck for us. No State income taxes, Property taxes will be lower in the long run and sales taxes are a wash. What I will not miss is all the BS fees that are taxes in disguise along with the tremendously high costs. NOW, I will still put up with them for a time if we keep the MD shore house, but only part time and NO income tax which is over 10% effectively.
