Housing: B friends in the Bay Area?

Off Topic
  • Hello all,

    My two Bs and I are moving to the Bay Area (peninsula or San Jose) in June and want to find someone with a spare room to rent. A household with other Bs would be perfect!

    If you have friends/associates in that area who might be willing to chat with me about housing, or refer me to someone that they know, please feel free to send them my email address. My intro and photos can be found at http://www.lori-stephens.com/SF.
    Thanks!

  • Lori, I am no where near you - I am in the suburbs of Vancouver, BC, but if I needed a roommate I would take you in immediately. Your bio rocks!

  • I sent your post and bio link to a friend who lives with her long term S.O. in San Francisco, they have a 3 bedroom, 2 bath home. They are pet-less currently, have had her beloved husky, and several cats. She used to live in Seattle, then SF, then lived in Sequim so you have lived in similar places. She is a physical therapist and teaches classes all over the country, also very outgoing and friendly, articulate, funny.

    I have no idea if they are interested in a housemate, but thought I would put it out there for them (Sara & Paul). She has been thinking about getting a basenji, by the way, so would give them a chance to be around them!

  • Sorry Lori, my friend is probably leaving San Fran about the time you will be getting there.

    Hi Lori, I live in Redwood City (mid peninsula). There's an off leash area (Pulgas Ridge) in San Carlos I take Buddy to that's up in the hills near Interstae 280. It's big and the dogs have a great time. http://www.openspace.org/preserves/maps/pr_pulgas_ridge.pdf The off leash area. A meet up at Fort Funston would be a lot of fun.

    Wow, this lady takes action and is very dedicated to helping! Like she said people are very uneducated and unaware. Some people have very little sensitivity to an animal. Like she said "I have the dog for protection" and it's on some short chain". Thanks Petra for posting this.

    What a wonderful Christmas story. I am so glad he came home and was OK, I can only imagine how awful your friend must have felt, thinking he was lost, injured and freezing. Nice to hear a really great happy ending.

    @LeeL: If you do go back to hardwood. I would recommend staying with Oak. We had oak floors in our last house and have Hickory now and the Oak was much better at resisting denting. You can see a few places after 18 months where the claw marks made a dent in the surface. I never saw that in 5 years of Oak. We have oak and it is standing up beautifully with three dogs {and Gypsy is fairly heavy} and all the kids {who are forever dragging their dining chairs across the floor despite dh's constant harping to 'lift, lift, lift" } The only dent is from where dh dropped the stereo when he was putting the room back together immediately after installing the floor :D I love it. It's tougher than we were told it would be and so easy to clean.
