Sounds great! I hope you don't pick up a giant population boost out there,
that tends to overload the water supply and dry things up.

It's hard to get by without a good water supply. I remember the long dry spell
we had down in Texas when I was a boy. We had a dry well, no rain and miles of dying corn fields.

Drought in the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
From 1950 to 1957, Texas experienced the most severe drought in recorded history. By the time the drought ended, 244 of Texas’ 254 counties had been declared federal disaster areas.[23]

I was born in Jan 1946, so I really didn't understand what was going on when the rains came back in my teenage years.
Almost got killed by flash floods a couple of times!
