My sister and I moved out of the San Gabriel suburbs, out of our mother's house, to a new place of our own. A few days ago I met another occupant of our quadplex, and she asked me, with a teasing smile 'How are you liking it here - how d'you like the noise.' And though yes, there's the obvious presence of rambunctious little neighbor kids and a lot more street traffic/noise, the price of freedom is well worth it. The commute to work is shorter, even if by a fraction, the neighborhood is super-walkable, fairly bike-able, and there's lots to explore. Yesterday evening, we walked to our local polling location and dropped off our ballots, then got pizza at a tasty Italian joint and headed back home - to new home.
