We are hoping for a more sunny local to move to in the near future, but Oregon is home for the moment. When I first moved here I was told, "if you ever get on the TriMax (public transit), and don't see a crazy person.....you ARE the crazy person". Still holds very true.

Thanks for the warm welcome ya'll!
Well, you probably know more than I do, but I'm afraid you've been given incorrect information. Tobacco can most certainly be grown in your location.
