    Suellen says, aren’t you guys glad you moved to the East Coast? (Especially considering what you wrote about how global warming will affect the U.S.)

    I’ll trade occasional flooding for extreme heat any time!

    And global warming will hit SoCal way harder than inland Connecticut.

    Yep. Good to be out, though I wonder if perhaps you made the better choice in the long run. At least we won;t have mosquitoes!

    We don’t have rattlesnakes!

    But you can’t eat mosquitoes!

    Actually I saw more rattlers in CA. I have yet to see one in UT, though I’ve heard they’re here.
