I wonder if this is why I have become progressively more functional since moving here?

I wonder about stuff like that too. I was wondering if moving to a medditerrain climate makes joints feel better??? I wonder if humidity makes things worse.

Every time I go out to CO I've felt better! I've even reluctantly planned snowboarding trips out there in the middle of flares and I felt fine the entire time I was there! Granted this last time I was following the NSD but still.

I've always felt better in Hawaii...except the one time we went during winter. They DO have winter in Hawaii. Water is colder--too cold to swim and too cold (and windy) to hang out at the beach. It was warmer than Oklahoma, though.

Everything hurt less during the summer trips to Hawaii. Walking hurt less, hiking was possible, too. Background pain levels were less.

ya never know!

whatever it is, hope it continues!
