Have A Great Summer Everyone


Audiogon is a favorite winter activity for me. I thoroughly enjoy the tech talk, music gab, and all of the personalities that make this site so enjoyable. Even the bantering and bickering back and forth is interesting as it demonstrates the passion that most people feel for this hobby and for music in general.

Music is good for the soul.

I will be relocating to the Pacific coast later this summer after being born, raised, and having spent 45 years of my life here in Connecticut. I have many lifelong friends here that I will miss dearly. The winters are really starting to take their toll on me. I am an outdoor person, and spending six months out of every year stuck inside just ain't cuttin' it any longer.

So for now, I would like to wish eveyone on this site, and their families, a happy, healthy, and safe summer. And most importantly.....

Happy Listening.

I very much look forward to rejoining you all next "winter" (if that's what they call it in California).

My Best and Most Sincere Regards to ALL, Ed.

Hi Ed,

We eagerly await your arrival out here in CA. I left the East coast fifteen years ago and never looked back. Let me assure you that the minute you cross the state line your going to feel ten years younger.

I still get a chuckle almost everyday when I walk outside and the temperture is just perfect (year round) no humidity, no rain, no snow. CAN WE TALK?

Oh and just for the record, I haven't felt a decent earthquake in over ten years, nor has it ever flooded anywhere around my house in the Santa-Cruz mountains.

Oh yea, I think your going to like it here! Did I mention the selection of fresh fruits and vegtables vine ripe in the groccery stores every day of the year? Get ready for some good healthy eating! There's just something about living here that makes you want to eat right and stay in shape,

Need I mention the eye candy?

Oh, and we don't smoke cigarettes out here, so get ready for some good fresh air when ever your in a resturant or a store, you will never smell that stench.

Anyway, we'll be hering from you soon, Let us know where you settle in
Hi5harry, it was a little warm today wasn't it? About 86 at my home in the foothills. I was contemplating going for a walk on the beach in Santa Cruz (about ten minutes from my house) but i had to grout a tiled floor instead. Oh, well there's always next weekend :^)

It's 8:00 and the sun is going down I can feel it start to cool off now. It will drop about 20 degree's tonight and then it's sweet dreams. I'll tell you when the fog rolls in at night it's like a dream around here.

I remember the first time I visted San Fransisco it was early January and the weather was incredible. The trolly driver said you picked the perfect time of year. Much nicer than summer. I replied yea, not to hot. He said actually the summers are rather cold.

When you experience the fog bank in San Francisco it's like outdoor air conditioning in the summer. My kind of weather totally. And the people are so happy and... and... what's the word I'm looking for........
Sean here's another tid bit of information, They'll string you up on a pole in the center of town and flog you for refering to "you know where" as Frisco. It takes the joy right out of there little (what's the word) hearts

I'll probably get flogged just for typing it!

Anyway it was a blistering 90 degrees today, I went to Santa Cruz to get a Jamba Juice after work and the line was clear out the door.

I actually came home and had to run the air conditioning for a few hours till the sun went down, It's suposed to cool down by the weekend.

Please don't tell anyone about the AC (CA joke) Know one owns air conditioning out here except me, what can I say I was born on the East Coast :^)

If it hits 90 degrees that's it!

Say Ed, you should look into Satallite radio for the long drive. I bought the SIRUS service and really like it. You get a ton of great music with no commercials. They say you can listen to the same station all the way across the country. It's about $10.00 a month if you sign up for a year. I'm listening to it right now on my home system. Not bad!
