Hi,

This is my virgin post here on LJ. My roomie turned me onto this, so I figured I'd check out the community. I'm currently prepping for a trip to California. I leave Saturday for Monterey followed by a visit to my Buddy's place in San Francisco.

Looking forward to getting to know the LJ community.

Ciao for now.
