Moving to the Richmond area this weekend

I found a place to live in the outer Richmond area...think almost NW part of SF, just south of the Presidio, and North of Golden Gate Park. Blocks from the beach....the cold beach. Oh, and parts of it are a nudist beach. Just imagine the surprise on my and my cousin Robert's face when he took me to Baker Beach, and as we're walking along, we see a man walking along...in the cold, strutting his stuff. Classic SF!

I'm on California St. near 28th Avenue, near Seacliff, which is where there are ritzy houses on the cliff. Not sure that's a good idea in earthquake territory.

I'm renting a room from a woman, who lives in the house she grew up in. Cute, cozy place. Yes, cozy means small, quaint, funky room spaces. She has a backyard...well, a deck, but at least she has an outdoor space and it has fruit trees, a tomato plant and flowers. AND, she has a chocolate lab named Max.

It was a beautiful day in SF today - probably in the 60s, but the sun was out, so it was nice and warm. Think I'm preferring that right now compared to warm Burbank, where I landed an hour ago. I'm sure tomorrow when I'm working on my house in the heat of the valley, that I'll be wishing for the cool SF temps.

  1. Hi Linda!
    Glad you found a cozy new place to live! You can't really go wrong with someone who has a lab! Bear says "woof"! ;o) CJ
