Home Sweet Home

San Francisco has hills you could ski down, mist-ical views of the Bay, and beautiful, quirky streetscapes populated by beautiful, quirky architecture. Long Beach has a magnificent boardwalk you can stroll, run or ride; world-class views of the Atlantic, and beautiful, eclectic streetscapes populated by beautiful, eclectic homes.

SF has great shopping, great eating and great access to the natural outdoors, just over the Golden Gate Bridge. LB has limited (but improving) shopping, mediocre eating, and the best natural playground on the East Coast, just up the block. No driving, no trudging uphill required. And we're a stone's throw from the best city on the planet.

San Fran has its charms (just got back, in case you can't tell. Birthday surprise for my sister - the look on her face was priceless!).  But Long Beach has magic.


I love them both, but LB is home.
