You got that right Jim, I was born here in So Cal - I cant even handle our winters :-)Funny my Dad could not wait to get away from there when he was a kid. But now all he has is fond memories of the farm and the seasons, he misses it. I love So Cal - just wish it had about 11 million less people :-)That would sure make it easier on my antiques when trying to go for a drive. Though atleast in the 47 I dont worry about getting run over too often.
