Saratoga Springs, CA
February 4th, 2009
Trading my million-dollar view on the cliff overlooking the pacific for a secluded, forested valley has been an interesting change. There are several other RVs here, but the high-end snobbery of Malibu is gone. It’s possible that some of these people are semi-fulltime, trying to avoid the high costs of living in the bay area, I presume.
Saratoga Springs is mostly a corporate retreat with some camping facilities; the owners are super nice and accommodating. They have no sewer facilities, but have a pumping truck that comes around now and then, which is sortof annoying (especially considering my tank sensors don’t work so I can’t actually tell when there is about to be a sewage disaster)
The one downside of living in the woods is that Magic’s walking schedule is a mess. We’ve been getting up early in the morning to do some trail running, but otherwise we have to go for walks at the office, as the daylight situation is not ideal right now — and there are no lights here at night. This basically means that he has random energy at random bad times of the day, often bothering my office mate. (sorry, doug)
