[quote=jpinpb]It was a pretty good turnout. I didn’t do a head count, but I’d guesstimate 20ish[/quote]
At around 7 o’clock I counted 23 people. I only had about 1.5 pints by that point so my count is reliable.

Great turnout! It looks like everyone is doing well. Too bad I didn’t get to talk to everyone either. The group I did talk with were extremely interesting and insightful. Plus I was busy stuffing my face with Irish nachos!

Wow those were some busy hippies! Cool vid.

I find the homes in San Diego do not suit my preferences at all. Is the permit process too strict here to allow beautiful houses to be built?

Here’s a nice example of a timberframe/post/beam house.

Or maybe you can get a fancy prefab home.

That sucks. On the flip side it’s funny, sometimes I’ll be 50 feet away from someone and already I can see a sneer-faced readiness to launch into a tantrum if my dog so much as walks towards them. I find it amusing to watch different types of reactions to dogs. Most people are totally cool but some are just looking to argue. Dog behavior is extremely predictable, some people are just really bad at seeing this or perhaps just too plain scared. What’s really unpredictable is human behavior! Personally I like when dogs approach me, because I like dogs. When people hold their dogs back I feel sad. That’s my rant.

My advice is to always wear a smile, whether or not you have perceived some slight. Pointing out someone’s rudeness? What’s the point? That’s just going to make things too uncomfortable for long-term neighbors. You’ll come off as grouchy.
