Tod, it looks like just one of those serendipitous things. Apparently, we're both in the right place. How about that?

Hope they leave the "West Coast Rule Book" here. I don't feel like buying a bunch of East Coast or Mid-west legal parts.

There Ya Go! lol

Met a few nice people in LA..., out of 13 million.... , most of who seemed to want to be where I was all at the same time...

Great Mexican food in LA, I will give it that, and I spent a great day once at work on the beach. They were painting my office so I took an air card and worked in Malibu, it didn't suck.

But I will WALK before I go through LAX again.

I spent a week in Orange County back in 09 and there were Police chases all day long, wake up in the morning watch it live on the news, go out in the courtyard during lunch and watched the helicopters and listened to the sirens all day everyday.

X2 on the good mexican food, not sure how folks can live out there though, except for the beautiful weather

I've lived in So Cal all my live except for four years I lived in southern Oregon in the Rogue Valley. We get back up there every few years, and I fantacize about having a place in Grants Pass or thereabouts. The thing is that I have an outstanding job with lots of nice people, and I really can't leave until my daughter finishes college.My son is almost done, she has about two or three more years to go. One thing,though,every time we spend time up there,I can't help but notice how busy,active and somewhat noisy this place is when we return. Oh,sure, we have everything--you are an hour or so from the beach at Malibu,the high desert if dirt riding is your thing,Glendora is ten miles from Irwindale, seven from Pomona, and twenty five from Fontana, so there is sufficient drag racing( we went through a 20 year time span where this was NOT the case),I guess every locale has its perks and its pits. I think, however, I would rather take my chances in an earthquake over a big tornado. Meanwhile, I'll avail myself of the opportunities at hand and enjoy the present.
