Wow… I am getting both stoked and scared about moving – but when I remember that it’s for the kids, my fear goes away.
Ash – you remind me that it’s got its really good points – weather not being one of them. I just confirmed getting a furnace for my garage – I will wait out next winter and send pictures to the site!
We almost bought a house 2 houses from Barry Alvarez!!! But the one we settled on fits my features list. I love Union Terrace – had ice cream there. Most interestingly the things that drive me the most crazy about so cal don’t exist there. You can park right on the square of the capital building and actually get a spot – and there is no real traffic at all. Everything in Madison is a 5-15 min drive.
I took my son and his buddy to 6 flags on this Tues in North LA. We left the park at 3:15 to go back to La Jolla. 150 miles. We got home at 8:45 (had to stop at about 6pm for dinner (45 min) because i couldn’t feel my legs anymore. We averaged about 30 miles an hour… but really more like 15 miles an hour and 60-70 miles an hour after dinner. It was horrible – but the weather was great!!!
Anyway – I’m going to have fun there… And moan about the snow and cold like everyone else. I like to hang out in coffee shops, and especially like it when it is cold and snowy outside. I will survive!!!! (I hope!)
