I should added the other reason my sister in law left was the big quake they had in the bay area back in the 80's during the World Series. Before that she always laughed at me when I brought up living in California and the damn quakes.

She said that was her final wake up call it was too intense and she said she was scared shitless. Stay away from st andreas fault, that pretty much rules out the whole state. :)

Also my nephew lost a multi million dollar home in the Oakland fires a few years back. As they say a nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there.

Oh! I forgot to say.... I'm a Bay Area native so if you have any questions at all or need anything, PM me. I might even be up for giving you my patented tour of San Francisco.

I used to live right near Dublin, danville to be exact, be ready its more expensive than the east coast, yes, but its overall a very nice place to live. Sanjose is just a stones throw away, and SD is actually a really cool city especially around pier 39

Did you see this guy? :boss:

Uhh No. I was maybe 8 years old. My family decided to spend Thanksgiving their. We stayed at a Hotel called the Pinewood Inn or something like that. I asked my Grandfather one time why he didn't play any Golf that weekend & he said my Grandmother wanted it to be a family time.

I told him he should have played a round of GOLF. He said I KNOW.

If you are lucky, Vee might give you a tour of the valley.
