Jabber, you and hubby would enjoy the western coast. Since I came from the same area as you did (southern Ontario), I was entranced by the temperate rainforests (trees are taller and bigger because of the rain), flowers and other vegetation one doesn't see wild out east. Flowers are bigger and more vibrant. Of course, the wildlife if you know where to go. Mountains of course.

Just come to Seattle and Vancouver, BC area in summer months. Least amount of rain. smile
