I was born and raised in California, (Bay Area) and moved to Boston, Massachusetts to attend college. Met my wife and never moved back….
Travel Interests
Places: Countries, States, Cities, and Regions I love to visit or would love to visit. (These are also areas I will try to contribute Articles to.)
In the US
California – the Golden State
- Bay Area – Home Sweet Home
- California Delta – a.k.a the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta - Very hard area to photograph but a very fascinating landscape full of levees (most of the area is 15 feet above sea level with some areas below sea level) , draw bridges, walnut grooves, and vineyards.
- Half Moon Bay – Beach and surf city. Fun to explore Highway 92 and the Highway 1 (a.k.a the Pacific Coast Highway.)
- Menlo Park – Not Menlo Park in NJ
- Mountain View (California)
- Palo Alto – a.k.a. "Shallow Alto" cause of the high yuppie and student populations, but still a neat city to explore.
- San Francisco – love "the City" even though it can be a huge tourist trap.
- San Jose (California)
Hawaii – Aloha! Also scoffing at you Cape Cod beaches!!
Massachusetts – Pahk the Cah in the Yahd (Yes some people REALLY speak that way.)
