Michelle, your set up sounds ideal, and you are so lucky to have such a helpful family! Here's a pic of one side of my yard.

Thanks for that wonderful info., Robert. You are so knowledgeable! I think you are right that Zones do change and can get raised, but I'm not sure about the Zone 11 part. If it is still possible to get a freeze every ten years or so, I think they still call that Zone 10, but I have no direct knowledge about the hardiness map decisions made by the USDA. I do know that some hardiness maps are different than others, depending upon which organization has published it.

Violet, it sounds like you had and have some nice microclimates going too! I've no doubt that those mobile homes probably radiate heat, and if they are close to each other, it probably stays very warm at night.
