Joey, I've got two spare bedrooms, and an AutoZone, an Advance and an O'Reilly's less than a mile from my house...

...but I also have four cats, and your Corvette would have to stay parked outside.

Where I live used to be nice but uncivilization is creeping in fast. Mobility is impossible with more and more red lights and it seems I don't speak the native language here anymore.

Sounds like it's time to spend some time out here in Tx. Your sister lives out here! Come on out for a visit.

But I got tired of being around a community whose average age was over 100 I got tired of 95 degrees and 100% humidity from April through November, with a slight chance of cooling off for a couple of months...maybe... I got tired of having to drive over 6 hours just to get out of the freaking state

So, one year ago, I picked up and moved to Charlotte, NC The weather is much more temperate, the people much younger and NICER (no grouchy, rude snowbirds pushing and shoving their way into every thing--even though I've moved north, I'm deeper in the South), the scenery is gorgeous (traded palm trees for oaks, maples, dogwoods). The slims are smoking and, if I drive one hour west I'm in the mountains...a couple of hours east and I'm at the beach... Instead of driving 6 hours only to reach GA, 6 hours driving here will land me in DC.

All in all, I'm happy I made the move. In fact, I have zero regrets. It was one of the best decisions I made in my life
Carolinas are on the short list for where my wife and I will retire to. We love the Outer Banks. I have spent time in Greenville SC and really liked it there.
Like you said, you can be in the mountains or at the beach in a couple of hours. Not so freakin hot as Florida (unless you are in Charleston SC).

I was born in NC and am a lifelong 'Hell fan, but any of the more populated areas of the state are becoming culturally foreign and the ENTIRE state, even rural sections, is effected by political changes in Raleigh.
I really liked Charlotte when I visited last fall

I pretty much dislike where I live, the only time of the year that it is liveable is a few days in the spring and the fall.
Winter isn't too bad, as long as it is dry, but some winters it rains for weeks on end and is 50 degrees, it sucks.
I would like to have a place on the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe to spend from Apr to Oct in. Then I'd put up with the winters here in south Texas.
