I'm from San Francisco, although I haven't been back in decades. When I was a wee little kid, we'd pile in the car and head for Grandma's house in another state from time to time. My dad used to refer to it as "Re-entering the American Zone."

Nice to meet another conservative Indian. We are a rare breed you know. My tribe is about 98% liberal Democrat. In the old days they called them "sit around the fort, Indians" as that is all they did, waiting for the next government handout.
