After a whirlwind moving experience we are finally settled into our new place! Our most recent challenge proved to be getting internet (which is why we are so late on this blog post).
Michael has been catching the Apple Bus every morning from only three blocks from our house. He is really enjoying his job and loving being a part of an Apple Team.
Marilyn is staying busy with job interviews (fingers crossed), running errands, and making sure the house is organized.
We are both loving living out here so far despite all of the craziness that has come along with moving across the country. Some of our favorite local spots are in our neighborhood, Noe Valley, and just a few blocks from our house.
Bernie's Coffee Shop (where we have met Bernie and know several of her employees) is our favorite coffee place to go on the weekends and for a treat during the week. The Saturday market in Noe always proves to be wonderful with tons of local farmers and delicious, colorful produce. Green 11 is one of our more recent finds. It provides refills for household cleaning products, shampoo, conditioner, etc. So we just bring our empty bottles and they fill them for us. We're loving how cheap it is but also how sustainable it is! The Whole Foods in Noe sells wonderful local milk that comes in bottles (which we can return for refilling) with delicious cream on top. Our new bank, Wells Fargo, is in town too. Our new favorite pizza place, Patxi's, burger place (with veggies burgers), Barney's, a brunch place (Toast), a florist, hardware store, and gym are all right in the center of Noe Valley. We love the convenience but also the community. Everyone is very friendly and it definitely has a small town feel.
We had our friends Alex and Kenna over for dinner the last week. They live just down the street which we are so excited about. They were absolutely blown away by our place and espcially our view. We feel so fortunate to have them so close and to have such a wonderful place to call home.
