Hi Lee,
Selling your gear, you will regret.
I live in a country with a much worse climate in the sense of both cloudiness and light pollution. Winters are much colder, not as bad as e.g. Russia or E Europe, but colder than the coldest places in Australia. And in summer it gets barely night due to the high latitude. Sometimes there is a 2-3 month interval between two astrophotos when at home.
I am in the lucky position I can make yearly trips to South Africa or Australia (I am in the latter right now) help me continuing this hobby, which I have been doing over 50 years. This allows me to see real dark skies and the southern skies.
Get a decent DSLR e.g. the Nikon Z6 which is lighter than its D750 predecessor, mirrorless and mounts all Nikon F mount lenses and a lightweight travel scope + mount or, what you say, a Star Adventurer which can carry a Nikon DSLR + 300mm lens.
