Northern California, about 75 miles (give or take) east of San Francisco, in the San Joaquin Valley, salad bowl of the world! - by way of Long Island, New York (Suffolk County). Asbury Park (little Beruit - I love it!) New Jersey, where I spent my Dark Shadows years. 5 more New York locations, and 6 more in New Jersey. Marathon, Florida. And Arizona (Phoenix, Tempe, Mesa, & Apache Junction). Geez, I bet I've got the Rakosi's beat!

Well traveled but not worldly Dom (who may have been a gypsy and a tramp - but never a thief!)

    I love New Jersey.  My husband grew up there.  We drive ten hours from Maine to visit the Boardwalk, eat Taylors Pork roll, Nunzio's Pizza, and Max's hot dogs.  Max's used to be on the boardwalk but it burned down twice.  Its now located in Long Branch. Criterion(sp) had the best salt water taffy but it closed.  It was in a part of town friends called Little Beruit(Asbury Park) .


WOW...you'll drive 10 hours just to go to the Boardwalk????  :o   Now THAT'S dedication.
Funny - I don't think I've been to Asbury Park more than once or twice.  When we go to the beach we head a little further south -- no boardwalk -- we trudge over the dunes.  LOL

By the way -- has anyone noticed how many places Dom has lived?  I have a feeling he might be wanted by the authorities.

;D

What city in the San Joaquin Valley? I'm originally from Madera, 20 miles north of Fresno, and lived in Fresno, too, before moving to the LA area.

Hi Bette!

I'm in Tracy, just a few hours up the road from Madera. I love Fresno! (Bet you never heard that much during your tenure in the area, eh?) lol. I almost moved to Fresno but that relationship didn't work out - the one that got away. <sigh> But I made out alright.

I love Tracy, it's the first place I've ever lived in my 44 years where my neighbors actually welcomed me to the neighborhood, and with home-grown veggies, pies, etc. to boot!

(Very happily settled) Dom

Or could it be that you two can't come out in the day?

True, everyone loves to diss Fresno.  But I must admit to a certain nostalgia when I think of the place.  I'm a true "valley girl."  What I miss most is being only one hour from Yosemite, and being able to take all those day trips there. I've been thrugh Tracy, but not spent any time there unfortunately.
