Trust me, as my area is hit with frost and 24-degree weather, I'm thinking of beach, ocean and sand.
A question on the local utilities. Up here in the North, we have a selection of gas and electric companies. Most offer competitive prices and discounts if you sign up with them for a period of one year.
Based on a 2K-square-foot home, what would the 'average' electric run on a monthly basis? I was advised to average $100 per 1K square foot, counting the fact that you run air conditioning far more than your furnace. I'm a fresh air person, even when it's "hot", and wondering how I will adjust to your humidity.
I'm also a "gas oven" cooking person, and I'm not seeing many gas ovens. I realize that gas lines with the high water level is an absolute no-no. What about propane? Then again, I might just have to invest in a really good outdoor gas grille.
