related to the weather. My wife says she can't take another summer like 2023! As I said in the OP- we are Texans- by every definition of the word. She was born in Fort Worth and you don't get more Texan than that. Politics are politics everywhere. (we learned that living in the UK and Ireland) right wing conservatives live everywhere (yes, even in Europe). We will not move anywhere if it costs us financially. That is the roadblock we are running into. Our house is paid off and is in a nice community- but even so it can't compete with house prices in WA or OR.
