California since 1966
Have been living in the marvelous Monterey Bay since 1980.

Prior to that .... Chicago, Colorado, Upstate New York and Montana.

On the lookout now for a new summer home since I already have my winter home in Baja, that being a 14' trailer and a great spot to park it for 2 months........yeeeeeeeeeeeeeha.

Temple City dates were 85-86.

Looks like there are a few Central Coasters on the board.

What could be better than Montana in the summer?
Where did you live there, and where in Chicago? And upstate NY? We have kids in Ithaca. My son-in-law is from West Valley, near Buffalo.

Born in Oregon-5th generation: San Jose (Meridian Ave Apts) Foster City (s.f. bay area) Burlingame, Pasadena. Then back to Oregon in the early 70's. Lived in California long enough to know why everyone is leaving there & moving to Oregon!!!!! Don't have to smoke in southern California to have lung problems. Drove up to Mt. Wilson observatory after moving to Pasadena. One look at that dark brown cloud, hanging over L.A. and I was making plans to get "out of Dodge"!!!!!!!!!!

Here is where it gets weird. I lived about the same 4 block distance from Bajalou in Fremont, as I do in San Felipe, and didn't meet him till we moved to San Felipe.

My dad was in the air force stationed at Castle Air Force Base (now defunct) near Merced and Yosemite. We used to go camping and fishing there all summer long. Yum. I miss those fresh river trout for breakfast! Then we moved to Puerto Rico (another defunct air force base) and then to Utah (brrr). Now I live in Long Beach and work in Orange County. But my heart is always in Baja!



If a man walks in the woods for love of them half of each day, he is in danger of being regarded as a loafer. But if he spends his days as a speculator, shearing off those woods and making the earth bald before her time, he is deemed an industrious and enterprising citizen. Henry David Thoreau

Lived in Helena while in MT, Southside Chicago back in the good old days of the late 1950's and Oswego while in Upstate New York in the early 60's.
Loved all those places equally!

You have a great point on Montana in the summer and since I still have family up that way I think a road trip is in order ! My goal is to keep my boat here in Santa Cruz for our gorgeous indian summers and the holidays , Baja for shivering months of Jan and Feb, back to Santa Cruz for spring then XXXXXXXX for a few months of good sunshine and gardening somewhere less crowded and more affordable than Santa Cruz.
