That's still not close considering I'm on the opposite end of the country. (Md. at the head of the Chesapeake bay). Always felt I belonged in northern Cali, or Oregon. Was only there once in an 18 wheeler with my truck driving husband (ex), I was 24 & have missed it every day of my life since. Should have moved there before I had to go on disability, now I'm stuck here. Thought it was the most beautiful place in the world. Driving through the vineyards took my breath away!
