cottonmanifesto and I can move to Austin, and you and Pywaket can move to Portland, OR. I think that would sort everyone out into the kinds of places they really want to live :-)
I'm just going along with the Vermont (or Nova Scotia) plan because it's better than the alternatives (no Pywaket, or staying here in Somerville and never having my own home or garden). And I don't mind the cold or snow that much. I just prefer hot and sweaty. And there is plenty of sun (definitely a requirement for me, too) in Vermont (and in the part of NS that we own the land).
Anyway, glad you liked Austin as much as you did. I'm not a big fan of Texas, but almost everything I've heard about Austin makes it sound great.
Here's a suggestion...
