Actually, Palmdale (which is in the sticks...think Brighton compared to Detroit...). It's the start of the Mojave Desert, in Antelope Valley.
The reason Palmdale? Josh's job is there. The upside? Cheaper rent The downside? Nothing about it is charming. The reasons I can get by? It's an hour from: Santa Monica Beach, Malibu, Downtown LA, Burbank, Pasadena, and Disneyland...
well, i'll admit i am slightly less excited as i was hoping for NorCal, of course.
also, oddly enough, i just had a conversation about Palmdale the other day because my roommate went there for an interview at Lockheed Martin once. She said it definitely is in the middle of nowhere, but still - California! woo :)
Yes. middle of nowhere, CA is much better than middle of nowhere, SD.
And at least it's close to things...
I'm sure we'll vacation to NorCal - who wouldn't?!? In which case, I may have to have a little housewarming party for you! (That is, if you're not in Vegas...)
Oh my gosh!
