When I was a kid I had the fortune of spending time at my Uncle's house just outside San Fran on a mountain top called Skyline Drive, overlooking Half Moon Bay. He could not understand the few times I visited why all I wanted to do was sit in his back yard and look to the right and see the bay, look to the north and see the city and look to the left and see the ocean.
He FYI was unfortunatly invited on Airforce I during the VP inaguration after the assasination of JFK. My Uncle was a piolot for Air Force 2. He is in the background of of that famous pic of Jackie Kennedy next to the vp taking the oath on Air Force 1.
And my favortite song of all time is bubble gum bullshit pop by a band called Diesel about a the suburb of San Fran called "Saulalito Summer Nights".

Welcome and hi from Finland! ^_^
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
