Up until about 25 yrs ago, I would have moved to CA for the weather and car culture in a heartbeat. If I had, I'd be with the thousands now getting out too. Good call on OK although as a "northerner", I'd need more trees around me...
My shop building had 2 outlets when we moved here and I added 5 more when we insulated and put in the ceiling for heat. Not enough, but much of my wall space is behind cabinets and shelves anyway.
