Wife and I are shooting emails back and forth.
I have created a spreadsheet with columns for days with sun, days with rain, crime rate, inches rain/snow, etc.

She is looking at zillow at 1AM and picking out houses that looks nice.

I have stayed in Eureka and LOVE it... I think it is a good balance of big enough to have food and entertainment and a nice mild weather.

Wife sent me a zillow link to a house in Sandy, OR. with a backyard that edges on a nature preserve... that would be pretty awesome.

But,

Sandy = 80" rain, 182 rainy days, 141 sunny days.
Eureka = 40" rain, 120 day rain, 179 days sun.

I don't mind rain but as island said it is the gray days that worry me.
Don't ski (bad knees) and at 60 don't think I will take up the hobby.
Not enough $$ to do two houses... matter of fact (not to sound morbid) but this is my last move and plan on taking a dirt nap wherever we end up.

Thanks for the replies!
