A benefit of living in a walking city on hills is the ladies have great looking legs.

On the other hand, the many sailboats and yachts plying Lake Michigan's blue-green waters remind me of one of the many visual pleasures San Francisco offers.

I have been to San Francisco more times than I can remember. The physical surroundings are outstanding. I love the climate (and I have been there at all times of the year). I first saw the Pacific Ocean many years ago as I drove over a hill top just south of the city.

If I could afford to live there, I would do so glady.
