Lived in Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Manhattan Beach, Costa Mesa, Santa Cruz, Ben Lomond, San Jose, Palo Alto, Mountain View and Sacramento. Left in 89 and moved to Texas. Have a son and 2 grandchildren in San Diego. Loved our ride up the Coast Hwy. from SD to Huntington Beach on our Burgman 400. Rode it up to Julian too for their world famous apple pie. CA. is a nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there now. We live in a cabin in the woods with 22 chickens, 6 dogs and a Peahen (female peacock). I love my space and solitude.
