tough one Eli. you like the land stuff too so there aren't many I know about that have land/snow/water - pick 2? I'd say England but not sure that would be much of a change from Seaside weather-wise. How about Oz or South Africa? NZ maybe? You'd get some warm water here and there too, or at least within a short hop.
don't leave tho

Haha "Blimp". I've never heard that terminology used to describe an inflatable before. I like that.
Shit, a light just went on in my head (and you don't even want to know all the crazy junk you can see in there when that happens!).
....So if we fill our blimps up with helium does that mean no more water relaunches required? Do we get way fucking more extra hang-time? Do we just wind our kite lines in instead of having someone catch our kites when we want to land? Could Sauvies work when it's only blowing 6-8mph? Don't they sell helium tanks at Costco? Wouldn't that mean no more pumping required? Who will be the 1st to try?

Sic shot! Dunie, WATCH OUT!
Tightened the trucks and been bombing local hills, to get my freak out.
I should be comfortable enough to add a kite now.
Eli,
My sister and brother-in-law own a place on the hill behind Seaside. Can't wait to hit one of your kickers!!!!! What a trip this is!!!
