Especially along the coast, which suffers from even more rain & stormy weather than here in the valley. Always real estate for sale on the Oregon coast, some of it pretty nice homes.

I've met a LOT of people who've done that. They come for an interview in August, and discover by October that the 4-color glossy brochure they experienced that weekend in "the summer" isn't what they're really getting.
I knew what I was getting into when I moved out here, and it still gets me down sometimes.
The odd counterpoint is that, when the sun is out, you feel like you *HAVE* to be out in it. Like it's an obligation. I remember last summer, it was like 9pm on a weeknight, and I was headed to bed (I'm an early riser), and I stopped and said, "No, I can't go to sleep yet, I'd be wasting sun-time." It's a bizarre thing.
