LOL We've already decided they would have to pay awfully well for us to go
there.

Hey jeanne, I grew up in OC. Lived about 8 years
15 minutes from Laguna Beach, part of those high
school years. I almost never went there.
I hate the beach. Lots of reasons but the just of it
is the water is cold and lonely to me.
I swear I must have drowned in the ocean in a
former life that is how much I don't like the beach.
If there was no salt water, stinky sand and crowds
I might like it. lol I have grown to love the desert.
I feel better in the dry heat. I am probably an hour
and a half from the ocean here. I don't miss it at
all. I have a sister that can't live more than 15 minutes
from the beach. DS is a block and a half away. Not
for me though. Bakersfield concerns me because of
all the chemical pollutants from all the farming. There
are some cute little towns up through the valley that aren't
bad except the pollutants. I like to eat though and if I needed
a job I'd take it where I could get it!
I have my fingers crossed for mary to end up close to family
in Oregon.

I'm CRUSHED!!!!!!!!!!!
That was my home for 8 YEARS!
I LOVED IT THERE!
Only a coupla hours form the ocean NO WEATHER all summer that our artie
LOVED. (mainly pain-free from artie then)
Did dislike the Tulle Fog but that was only intermittently during the winter
months when most of the US was fighting : SNOW, Blizzards, hail, sleet, high
winds, etc.and we only had occasioinal rainy days and yes, some cold nights
which the fruit trees loved.
Butterfly (who now lives in the Phoenix, AZ area and I don't dare invite J*
to visit here)

I always got the idea it was actually a pretty nice town.
There are a few quilting stores and years ago there were
a lot of antique stores that were always fun to hit on our
way up the valley.
