1. That's a pretty cool idea if one is passing through for a week or two.

I love the second photo with the lawn-cat

2. If you are young

and have the cash, why not, I suppose

4. Indeed, it's definitely not something I would do now!

3. Goddamn. The Bay Area is practically out of reach for most people,

at least if you want to live a normal life. I love the West Coast, especially the Pacific NW, but I don't want to live in a place where I have to struggle all the time. If I ever move out there, I'll have to live more inland. I love the mountains, so that might work.

5. It is nuts

I could never live in the bay area. I think I'm stuck in mega-hot Pasadena for the rest of my life. I'm 50 and my apt. is paid off. I did have a dream of living in a cooler less crowded place, but I don't see how that will happen. I'm trying to just be grateful for what I do have, and blackout shades are great!

6. Well, there's much worse places than Pasadena. At least you're close to

a lot of things. I like N. Cal. better, but I could do a lot worse than live out my days in Pasadena.

7. Yeah,

thanks. I guess I need to hear that sometimes. Who knows, maybe I will get to live in Oregon someday...maybe.
