We very much like where we live. It's a Senior Community with all the amenities. We're 4 miles from the beach; get the ocean breezes; walks on the pier; golf course view; able to walk to shopping, P.O., Sunday Mass at the Mission & French bakery; family just 45 min. drive; quilt shops (including Eleanor Burns) & JoAnn's all within 20 min. drive. In the past, we lived in Seattle and Denver before settling here. Yes, loved the changing weather and beautiful scenery, but as we get older, we appreciate coming home to So. Calif. I just had to be near my Pacific Ocean and family. Plus, it's very easy to visit mother (age 88) by hopping on the train or driving 60 miles. And, yes, she still drives around town. We're healthy and able to continue touring and cruising. We love where we live and consider ourselves very lucky and are thankful for our blessings. Amen to that!
