It's starting to sound good...
Will have to look into it a bit more deeply.

Thanks,

Thanks for the info.

My wife informs me that there are a lot of viable places available in that general area.
Gonna have to go check out the stats after work.

Thanks,

The OK Oklahomans need maps, such as, to see where the coolest temperatures in July would be.

The reddest areas are the hottest. I got this map from

I know that come Summer I'd whine REALLY hard about that heat...
But right here and right now, it sure does look good to me.

Yeah well, we all feel that way in the winter. Next summer we will all be moaning and groaning and wishing for winter. Some nice hot sun would have felt pretty good today. I had to wear my long johns.

I'm not familiar with "GreenCountry" but would it be safe to assume it's within the vicinity of Tahlequah?

If the prices and availability were there for us, you can bet you'd have an ummm.... "Interesting, but friendly and decent" neighbor.

Honestly though, the North East (and Tahlequah especially) was my first choice in OK...
But where I want to be and where I have to be (and can afford to be) are 2 different things... A smart lady like you can certainly understand that...

But... Should you want to trade your place for the LOVELY mountains, forests and nature of NH (And it's ALL good, no joking there, I'm in the middle of all that...), I have an open mind and would be more than happy to discuss it with you!
(Remember... We have NO bugs here for about 5 months a year and even the ones we do have aren't even close to what you have in OK.)

(Ignore me... Really good shopping is about 2 hours away in any direction... And my neighbors are the most unfriendly rednecks you'd ever want to meet... Wasn't always that way, but it has been since last year.)

You can say what you like... But at least I'm an HONEST Yankee.

Yep, Green Country is basically the Eastern 1/3 of Oklahoma. That's an interesting map Peggy, such as...

Here's another temp map. This is for average January Winter temperatures. Pretty accurate, in my opinion.
