It's cold in California. Clear, sunny, and icy cold. Nothing like the ice storms across the country, but chilly just the same. My Aiko sister sent me a few photos of her locale. This one warmed me right up. Whenever it all overwhelms, I imagine being in the islands again. I miss it terribly. 2.5 years to go, and we can leave California. There are few Californians left here. Everyone is from someplace else. We may as well jump on the transplant bandwagon and go be outsiders in Hawaii. People smile more there. Come on, 2010!

If you're going to be a transplant, that would be the place!
May all your dreams come true, angel! Both now and then!

Still, where you live is so beautiful. We'd have stayed in CA if we could have lived on the Mendocino coast, but alas, there was no work.
Why 2.5 yrs till you can leave?
My youngest will graduate from High School in 2010.
Mahalo for the good wishes, as usual, you rock.
aloha...se ya in 2010.
I remember when I moved from Daly City in SF after HS. Everyone I met was from the east coast. I rarely met a fellow Ca-nian.
Funny though about "outsiders" 'cause we were told we'll always be outsiders here in indy-anna.
We're just waiting a few more years to see where our retirement money will afford us the simple and less expensive lifestyle we want to live.
Every time I see photos from Europe and their markets and cafes, I seem to yearn to live like that, and walking and interacting.
No such animal out here.
Cheers from chilly - indy-anna!
It sure has been cold here on the California coast. It was 34 degrees yesterday morning. I don't mind it though, because the sun warms things right up. I understand wanting to go where it's warmer. That photo is beautiful. A fine place for a sunny future.
a worthy goal and dream. may it come true!
sigh...so beautiful.
It's funny that everyone is from elsewhere - Albuquerque's like that. A great place to meet Texans and New Yorkers (and one Chicagoan!).
