RicRob & Dreamer. Thanks for your words of support.
RicRob:
You may not recognize Petaluma from the early 60's as it has really grown a lot from its' days as a small chicken & farming town. It's still beautiful there though as well as in the surrounding upscale Wine Country area. You'll definitely have to make a special return trip to Northern California and go winery hopping.
Andrea: I know you're gonna really enjoy your upcoming June return trip to California. There will be lot of things to take in: Monterey, SF, Napa Valley & Sonoma Wine Country, Lake Tahoe, and on and on . . . Looking forward to the opportunity of finally meeting. Too bad you can't bring along your new SD1 too (or will you?)
