Sorry to hear about your folks. Good for her that you and your wife are willing pick up and go. My wife and I would have done the same thing. I can't imagine the culture shock living there coming from LA. You were form the South Bay, PV or something?
For some reason, I always you were a young man in your late 30 or early 40s. |

San Pedro.....It was a huge cultural adjustment on several different levels!
The general pace of life is much slower, which is a good thing, but some here just don't know how to shift out of first gear. You hire a contractor to do some work around the house and after a half a day they say "be back shortly" and they will return a week later!! The redneck hillbilly confederate flag wavers are in full force here too. But there are total strangers that would and will do anything to help other total strangers. My wife's parents still live in San Pedro and we would both like to be back closer to them, but not all the way back to LA....Maybe San Luis Obispo area or ??? And yes....I'm in my late 30s.....mentally but not physically!
