What A Difference A Year (Well Four Years) Makes!

Mendocino coast in CA is pretty kewl.  But I don't know anybody there

 

 

but, we've got a resident Cali scout on our team

Maybe the brain fog just lifted this morning?

 

" You're out of the woods

  You're out of the dark 

 You're out of the night. 

 Step into the sun,

step into the light ...."

 

 

 

Nuttin' like that fog lifting for good.

I'm going into the light....

 

Oh,  I will need to strap some parasols onto my chair as I am terrified of the sun.  And, no offense Irish, I would like California since the humidity is lower, just saying...

[IrishHeart]

None taken, my sweet. But if you come to my house, I'll keep you cool. I promise. 

[GF Lover]

I will be on your doorstep next February and I can't wait..

I do not do humidity. Like... ever. There is simply no excuse for water in the air. Utah is beautiful year round. Plus we have skiing. Lots of people say we have the best snow on earth, better than CO anyway, all they get is our leftovers. I don't do snow either, but I can keep the cocoa hot for the snow bunnies all winter long.

 

Plus we have Moab and Arches National Park. Tons of forests and canyons and that sort of thing too. And cities for us civilized folk. The kind with In N Out.

I love Arches - one of my faves!

Oh goody, my first visitor! I will hold you to that, Missy.

 Nonsense!  it gives curl to your hair and makes your skin all dewey.

 

(but really, this is why they invented "central air")

 

hey, all I know is, I feel GREAT down there.

Wrong!  It gives kinks to your hair and frizzy ends and makes your feets swell

I must be "different".  my "half-Mediterranean" roots and all?? Neither my Dad nor I felt this way in the humidity.

 

NOTE: We are coming NORTH in July and August to see the ponies at Saratoga and visit family & friends

in Mass, NH and Cape Cod.

BINGO! I think that some of us are just different. I couldn't stand the weather last time I visited PA and it was only in the 80s most days. It was all I could to to drag myself from bed to the shower to a chair to sweat in all day.

 

I hated the humidity growing up, and I hate it more now. To be fair though, my hair lost all its curl when I came to Utah. Straight as a board now, and totally tragic.

 

But hey, if it doesn't make you hate life I say enjoy it!

I want to thank everyone who responded to my post i really appreciate all your feedback. I don't know anyone else with celiacs. Alot of the time i feel like people think i am exaggerating about how i don't want any food with gluten around me. Trying to explain that a simple crumb can make me sick. When food gets brought into the house like pizza by my teenage boys makes me cringe. It's just nice to have people that understand and know more about the disease than i do. I can tell you all are going to be invaluable to me and i thank you.
