Thanks for the feedback fellas, getting down to crunch time! I'll be in the Emeryville / North Oakland area. Didn't expect sandy beaches there. Definitely going to have a lot to adapt to but I'll be working almost right away so that will occupy my days. I've already got tickets for the Yankees vs SF on June 1st and Braves vs SF in August. I believe I'm about a 7-hour drive from LA or a quick flight away. I'll have some exploring to do this summer.
