		<description>Sweet!  I&#039;ll add SF and Yosemite to my newly created &quot;List of Places 2 See: According to Tommy Angelo.&quot;

I wonder if I could write a book like that....I also wonder if I&#039;ll have to pay you royalties....hmm, forget I said anything.

One of these days I&#039;m going to get my butt out to Cali.</description>

		<description>&quot;If you had to pick one place to go to check out nature and it’s beauty, where would it be?&quot;

Remember in the original Star Trek when Kirk asked the bad computer a question that made it self-destruct?

Okay, I have to break your question down into two groups: with and without ocean.  For some people I suspect that any &quot;greatest ever&quot; location would have to include an ocean or a bay or at least a big lake.  And you implied keep it to California.  So with those parameters, I would say the one place to check out would be, uh, ... does not compute!  does not compute!

Okay here:

San Francisco.

There.

Anywhere around there, north of it, south of it, in it. You don&#039;t have to go far from it to be one with nature, and then you&#039;re never all that far from a Starbucks so it all works out.

And for inland, this one is closer to a no-brainer for me at least: Yosemite Valley.  Not only is it oh my god amazing, it&#039;s also historically significant in the role it played in turning the government on to preserving beautiful places just because.</description>

		<description>Humans are fortunate, Tommy and Kay especially so. Pistils, stamens, elephant seals, whales and love. Perfect examples of good life. Plus, flowers! 
Happy anniversary, folks.</description>
