Thanks for such a lovely detailed description! I am going to have to convince hubby. :) Sounds great there. Yeah, San Fran is also expensive, but the salaries do make up for it to some degree. You can do well as long as you are not trying to buy a house. Then, all bets are off. We have a lot of healing opportunities here as well. Even most traditional docs I have encountered throughout this thing are at least somewhat open to the idea I have candida, which makes it easier. We have farmers markets, but I never seem to get up and out early enough on the weekends when they are going on. Must fix that!
