Thank you all for your great responses, I am talking with a good friend in Seattle about how to go about this and, for sure come up with a plan.
One thing is for sure , I need to take the responsibility of storage away from myself as I am not as tech savvy as many of you here and I could run into a few major problems.
I think Cloud Archive with minimal back and forth looks promising , for me.
I will continue with the Drobo for day to day access but not for archiving.
