Off to San Diego....

Jan 07, 2014 21:17

....on Friday. My son is moving out there, and I'm helping him get set up and look for work. So far we have 3 possible places for him to live, and no job prospects, so it will be a busy week!! Looking forward to escaping the cold.

((((((((NODS))))))) west coast, tip of Florida and Hawaii are only areas with fairly normal weather

What are the three areas you are interested in looking at?
I was stationed there and then later went to grad school thee,
and business trips out of Sacramento when I worked for CalVetBoard

Safe healthy travel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks!

No chickens - he's vegan!!

He's looking mainly in Chula Vista, because that's where the gym he likes best is, and also in downtown San Diego.

I hope everything goes well, and I envy you the sojourn to somewhere warm.

If I can pack some sunshine I'll FedEx it to you when I get back....

I hope this is a positive move for your son! Safe travels.

Thanks! It is a good thing - he's wanted to live in the SW since we visited the area on a family vacation three years ago. And his job prospects are far better there than in a tiny upstate NY town.

Have a safe and enjoyable trip! Oh to be young enough to up stakes and go somewhere new to see what comes of it. I hope you get him sorted out with something without too much stress and hassle. Has he chosen this part of the world for any particular reason? What kind of work is he interested in doing?
At least he is in the US when my son got wanderlust he decided on China!....ahhhhh! I don't think I slept properly for 3 months!
Keep us posted on yours and his progress! xxxx

China!?!? That puts things in perspective! I haven't been sleeping well lately....

He likes the SW US and San Diego has many gyms for training in mixed martial arts. He wants to be a MMA fighter. So he is interested in getting whatever kind of job will keep a roof over his head while he trains.

I will!
