You can also move to San Francisco, the city itself and just south of it...Daly City, Pacifica, Brisband. It's 61 degrees and foggy. Not too much wind today.

Contemplate summer in San Francisco, and recall Samuel Clement's other thoughts.

See my post to bigheadfred.

Yes, it's cold. My husband and I lived in Saudi Arabia for five years. There were mosquitoes the size of Buicks there (Woody Allen movie).
Besides the mosquitoes there was the HEAT, 105-117 from April to mid-November. There was also 95% humidity.
During the three-month winter there were the "hamzeens," fifty days of winds blowing the fumes of H2S from the refinery chimneys over our little community. The H2S would sicken all of us. Lovely.

When I would come home I would KISS the ground of the good ole USA and ESPECIALLY the ground of cool, breezy San Francisco!!

I have a friend who lives in mid-Texas. She can have her 100 degree+ heat, humidity, occasional wind storms, bugs...and those wunnerful fire ants. One did bite me and the scar lasted a year. Hurt like hell.

Ants here in San Francisco stay underground. Never see'em. Mosquitoes don't come here because they need THREE CONTINUOUS WEEKS of heat to breed. We (Pacifica, Brisbane and Daly City too) just don't have that.

You stay where you are and I will stay where I am. Deal? Deal!! :o):o)
