3. Where I'm from, yep
At home, I have palm trees in my front yard in Riverside, CA.

The best thing is cellphone towers fakely disguised as palm trees. :)

Right now, I'm at college on Long Island..no palm trees here.

7. Not as many as there used to be.
Central Florida. We had three hurricanes come through here a few weeks ago and things still aren't back to normal.

9. At my keyboard. I do, however, have something growing out of my
ears that I can't see, and therefore might, possibly, be palm trees.

19. There are some here in San Francisco.
But they don't look as happy as the ones in SoCal and Flori-duh. All the cool weather , fog and wind, I guess.

What you see in SoCal



What you see in SF




And in Flori-duh



They may have pretty palms, but I wouldn't go back for a million bucks. It's not worth living in a sweatbox with NO HILLS!

Yes, have one in the backyard. San Antonio Del Mar, south of you and north of Rosarito. I'm a San Diego native, born & raised. It sure is good to see some San Diegans & North County people here. If you guys like to surf, and are ever down this way, stop by. We love Democrats and can have a few cervezas !! Take care.


and p.s. that goes for the rest of you too, really, love to have ya & do some serious beach time.

29. Gawd, I'm so jealous of all of you in warm climates right now...
Knowing that it'll be -30 outside (the actual temp) in a couple months.
