...and of course, the beaches are great but there is so much more to Southern California
...Southern California retirement communities start with the mid-coast..San Luis Obispo--the midway point on the Coast between Silicon Valley and Los Angeles -- there's no line that says Southern California starts here, but you can feel it... in the air and climate, see it... in the year-round flowering terrain, and sense it... in the laid-back, chic dress..from LA to Palm Springs..to San Diego..a very motivating area for good nutrition and exercise practices with abundant farmer's markets open every day and mountains and oceans nearby.
"Retirement: After a lifetime of distraction, I finally descend into myself..I wonder what I will discover there. It is as seeing through a crystal clear lake and studying the bottom with fear and joy."
