What’s the downside of that part of the world? Turkey vultures? Chiggers? Kudzu?

Chiggers, ticks, and humidity. In that order. One thing I had to adjust to is that in the Seattle area you can wander into the woods pretty much with impunity. In Kentucky in the summer you may want to use a special suit or you will be eaten alive. We’ll use Guinea hens but will also try to keep the underbrush in the woods down. But you pretty much have to clear it while it is still chilly in Spring while the bugs are still dormant.

Thanks to air conditioning in homes and cars, the only time the humidity should really be a problem is when I am working outside and don’t care how much I sweat anyway. It will still be a bit of a pain though. But every region has it’s drawbacks and plusses, some more than others. The plusses here are huge.
