What the....? I'm in California!
Whirlwind business trip - SoCal tonight, Santa Barbara tomorrow, SoCal Wednesday, home Thursday.

The weather is great. I can't believe it's been almost 20 years since I lived here (and 30 years since I gradumacated from UCLA). :wow:

:hi: California DUers!

13. I know! We asked the waiter why that was, when there are salmon just up the coast
:crazy:


We decided they serve Atlantic so they can charge $25 for it.

9. I lived in NorCal for a couple of years
Lived in Tracy, worked at One Embarcadero in SF. I learned to love mass transit for that 60-mile commute.

...and I know you're awesome :hi:
