What section of town did you live in San Diego? I am still here fighting the good fight but I may be leaving soon.

I was in Mira Mesa. The nearest cross streets to the old house are Mira Mesa Blvd and Parkdale Ave. Mira Mesa Blvd is a noisy parking lot from 6:30 AM until 9:00 AM M-F. The noise resumes around 3:30 PM and continues through about 8:00 PM. After that, the dominant noise is street racers peeling out in the westbound direction. That is fair game from 10 PM to 5 AM.

I do miss some things about San Diego. Hedgecock on the radio. The 5-mile road around Miramar Lake for speed skating (closed since 9-11-2001). Good Thai, Vietnamese and Mexican restaurants. Big bookstores like Borders, Barnes & Noble, BookStar and San Diego Technical Books. The cut-throat competition in PC parts stores. My indoor shooting range. In short, there are few amenities that I miss. Most of them can be replaced by internet connections to KOGO, the Amazon and Barnes & Noble online web sites, and my own asian cooking at home. Access to the lake would be missed whether I was in San Diego or not.
