I'd been a little disdainful of Walnut Creek, 'till my son & family moved there. Now that I've been spending time there, I've developed a genuine liking for the place. Their 2½ year old daughter is quite at home downtown, and I can just project her into the future with her own gaggle of girlfriends, out and about.

They're a mile from the epicenter, and felt it quite strongly.
