Hardly any real estate in the Bay area has air conditioning, I lived there for 7 years in three different houses, and none of them had air. They were fairly nice places too.

I think that when houses were being built in that area, the weather was a little different. I mean, it usually doesn't get above 101 at it's worst up there, but 101 with no air is NOT good!!

These days you could probably get it in a syringe.

She loves the area, and I do too. All those towns (Palo Alto,Mt. View, Corsicana (?), San Jose.....they all have such great little restaurants and shops. She isn't working yet, so she's just exploring. But the heat is really overwhelming right now.

They are hoping to move to another apartment by the end of the year - with air conditioning, but they want to be totally out of debt, which I'm thankful for.

I would!! 17 years ago we were paying almost $2,000 a month in rent for a 4 bedroom house.

There are very few new houses or apartments up there, it is pretty much land locked. So most all housing is older.

It used to crack me up when people would say things about Bakersfield being so hot, I would be like, well, yeah, but at least they are smart enough to put air conditioning in the homes down there!

A couple of years ago, I decided to get a spray tan. Not good! By the time I left the salon, it had come off my neck onto my t-shirt. I had to go back and be resprayed. They were not happy with me.

My daughter had a spray tan once and we didn't realize that it has latex in it, which she is very allergic to. She swelled up like a balloon and had to go to the ER. It was actually very dangerous.

See, what you DON'T have to put up with? I would love to have nice dark skin.

Tell her to check out Las Gatos. It's beautiful.
She may run into Gorbachov! lol
He does have a house there surprisingly.

Yea, the old part of Palo Alto( downtown is cool).
It's a very liberal area - near Standard university

So where do you live now? Or is that a secret?
