Well, Ray, you can come vacation at my house, just blocks from everything-
library, downtown shops, zillions of restaurants, etc - and I will come
vacation at yours! 
One of the big reasons some of us like to live in the city is that we commute
by bike, walk everywhere, and have plenty of time and energy to travel out of
the city. Many of us have for years fantasized about vacation trades with
folks in other coho communities. 
I want to hear your birds, Ray....
