folsom, i miss

as i clicked into the Yahoo real estate link, i thought of looking for some houses at this place that i still like a lot and miss very much - Folsom CA. hhmmm.....

nice, relaxing...i can enjoy my cup of tea during spring and autumn. i'm missing the weather there... :(

i like their open and no fence concept, you just don't have to worry about break-in...this looks like Alan's house that i once managed to find and drive there myself for a party with some close friends of his on one fine autumn night. felt so self-satisfied for a person without direction to have done that.

and it's very common for them to have their own swimming pool built in their garden or backyard. remembered once we visited uncle Rae's house with his huge and nice backyard and very own swimming pool. he showed & explained us the photos of the swimming pool building process, it's such an achievement for a family to have gone through the whole process together; from wanting a personal pool, to choosing the design, the size, the material, the layout, to starting the grounding process, to laying the mosaic, to filling up water, etc etc...well, u can find a thousand reasons on the Internet for you to own your own swimming pool. it's going to be a great get-together time for a family :) but of coz the weather does matter a lot, it does not apply so well here with our extreme hot weather. ppl there can simply go jogging during lunch time at 12noon on the road, without much sweating while enjoying the cooling breeze. i was once told by them that one of their lunch time activities is jogging, my immediate response was, "crazy! u're kidding me!" but then only came to think of it, it's possible to do it there. we're missing out a lot of good activities during the day time here :( i wish for a mere 5-10 degree celcius decrease on our weather temperature......................
