I called my Dad tonight and thanked him for raising my sister and I in a small Pennsylvania town.
I’m not a San Jose native - in fact, I grew up in a smallish town in southern California called Imperial. While I was growing up I couldn’t wait to get out.
I’ve lived in San Jose since 1995, and prior to that I lived on the eastern edge of LA County for about five years (more specifically, I lived in Pomona and Diamond Bar). And after thirty years of city life, I’d like to move back to the sticks.
