I'm moving to Northern California!

Off Topic
  • … as soon as I can find a job, or my house sells - whichever comes first! Ondrej has switched positions and now has a job at UC Davis so I'm looking for work around Sacramento area or 1/2 hour radius.

    I think Tayda and Lenny will love the weather!

    I'm excited, but boy am I SICK of moving! I'm like Where's Waldo. My parents have lived in the same house for the last 32 years and I have moved 4 times in the last 2 years. Soon to be 5. I confuse them. Too bad I will have to leave my cushy CR job... I quite like it.

    So I will soon (hopefully) join the ranks of the NorCal B-owners! As things get closer I'll be putting feelers out there for good vet and pet sitter recommendations!

    If any Bforum members out there know of Mechanical Engineering positions or Medical Device positions in the Sacramento area - PM me!

  • Awww…lucky you!! I am so jealous! you will love it :)

    A lot of the lure course events take place near Sacramento too.

  • My husband works for UCD and we both graduated from UCD. I live in Woodland, which is an easy 10 minute commute to Davis and about 20 minutes to Sacramento. Feel free to email me if you have any questions about the area.

  • Thanks Ivoss! Ondrej is renting a room in the Stonegate community right now in Davis, but when I get out there we'll look for a place of our own! He was looking in Woodland also, but this place in Stonegate let him sign a 3 month lease so that seemed to be better for the situation…

    One thing that surprised me is he said that there are bikers everywhere but no one wears helmets! Yikes! I don't ride 10 feet w/o my helmet!

  • Most of the professors wear helmets but most of the students don't. Stonegate is nice, have had friends that rented there.

  • Yea!!! Another California transplant!!! I hope that you will consider joining BCONC when you get here… lots of coursing around here .....

  • Very cool! :) My ex-vet (now retired) graduated from UC Davis and she took very good care of my first B…

    Even though we're not close to the UC Davis area, hopefully we'll get a chance to meet - maybe some B meetup a little south of there at some future time... (Perhaps Tayda and Lenny can get Cosmo to yodel :p)

    On another note, it's Dungeness Crab season here so if Ondrej likes seafood, he should get some at the grocery store (it's a very sweet crab)... :D

  • I've made a lot of trips around Sacramento. There are a lot of nice areas there. The climate is a lot more temperate than CT. Good luck in The Golden State!

    Chelsie-the B's don't get a chance to see them. The B's are in the front in a pen and the ducklings and chickens are in the back. After Shadow decided to help me butcher a chicken when we first moved in, I thought it prudent to keep them separated. They would definitely terrorize them. Yes, Robyn, I made the duck tractor. It has wheels on the one end so I can move it around. I do have a duck pen, and they will go in it when I fix the duck house. It seems rats, or something decided to make a meal of the one end and floor of the house. So, I have to fix that. I do really like it, but it won't be big enough in a couple of weeks for them. I will try to get more pics of the little monsters today. (And, the pen will work very well for one of the dogs if I ever need it!!) Yes, they grow very, very fast. If I can get a pic of them up and about, you will see how it's very hard to tell which one had the spraddle legs. The rouens are bigger than the muscoveys. There are three rouens and they have an eye stripe.

    I enjoyed the video, whilst in Kefalonia snorkelling i saw several Octopi , i think they're fascinating creatures. The ones i saw stayed very still, don't think i'd of been so keen if one had shot towards me.

    Congrats on your engagement! I know Courtney Thorne-Smith had her B and her other dog in the wedding. I think B's look great in tuxedos;-)
