And lots of snow if you select the Sierra foothills. Friends who live
near Grass Valley sent me pictures of all the snow they got yesterday
morning. I thought about moving there myself in 2000 and went to Grass
Valley on business with these friends along. We stopped at a real
estate office to see what was available. That summer I also visited the
area with a friend and determined that Grass Valley had quite a tourist
trade and I really wasn't sure that I wanted to live in such a place.
But my friends did buy up there a year or two later.
One plus for geeks, there's a Fry's in Roseville. ;-)

After a year of messy contemplation, I just purchased a used 32' RV,
using my sense of smell - Self-contained (you can save about $80,000
by buying used, with lo miles). Phase two is purchasing ~5 to 10 acres
of land in the Sierra foothills, or south of here. Phase three is to
buy, and construct a big quonset hut studio (>1000 sq ft.) - they come
in kits. I like the convenience of urban areas, and am keeping the
house I have, but I really crave a place of solitude, also, where I
can immerse myself in the religion of art, without the dogma -
painting the stars at 3 AM, etc.:-)
