When walking the beach yesterday morning I was contemplating all the positive things about my new city.... these are in no particular order just random thoughts which shows you how my mind works!
- The weather
- The sunny weather
- No snow and ice or below zero wind chill
- Did I mention the weather?
- All the tropical vegetation and flowering bushes and plants. Citrus and avocado groves.
- THE OCEAN!!!
- The smell of the ocean,sound of the waves and the sand between my toes
- Harbor seals
- The people- I always thought the Midwest had friendly people but let me tell you these Southern CA folks are really friendly.
- Being able to drive really fast legally
- Polite drivers- Chicago drivers should take lessons from CA. No horn blowing or "birds"!
- Stucco houses
- Several Trader Joe's
- All the hills and beautiful views from those hills.
- No bugs- haven't seen any yet...
- Sunsets over the ocean
- The craggy coastline
- Fresh seafood and so on.....
Love your positive attitude!! Every so often, I start really missing Ohio…But then I look outside and see the sunshine, and I'm so happy I'm in South Carolina!! Hope you're doing well over on your coast! Wish I could see the sunset over the water rather than getting up at the crack of dawn to see the sunrise… :)
