[quote=jstoesz]Have you thought of the central coast? San luis obispo feels like how California should be. Friendly, stress free with beauty and an abundance of recreation. It doesn’t have the uppity so cal vibe of santa barbara. Also, better weather than anywhere in San Diego. You could also buy much more than two acres, and they may even come with vines. There is no finer place in the country, I am convinced of it.[/quote]
Good suggestion jstoesz. I thought of that area as well. Outside of SLO, I’m fairly certain one can raise chickens and other farm animals, as well.
Kishy (if you ever check back in), the beaches outside of SLO (Pismo/Avila Beach) are VERY “low key” compared to more urban parts of CA.
jstoesz, just an FYI that it’s almost ski season again! I hope you’re able to find a little sledding hill in MN to amuse yourself with! You might have to end up using your plane tix for Reno … just to get the same fix you drove <45 mins for last season :=0
