Yes.....I love traveling Montague Expressway!

Or Central Expressway. Or 101. Or 237. Or Lawrence. Ad nauseum.

Loved your post. I don't forward much on to friends, but I sent that one around. <G>

Quick valley real estate story: A young lawyer and his wife bought a 2000 sq ft home (3 bdrm, 2 bth, 1/3ish acre in Los Altos) across the court from us a year ago for $1M. Eight months later (this past February), he got a job offer with a dot-com in San Diego so they put the house on the market for $1.25M (and I'm thinking "wow, a 25% gain in 8 months -- incredible!").

They had seven offers in 5 days and the winning offer was for $2.4M.

The buyer was a guy from Network Appliance. They're now spending 6 months "fixing it up" (gutting the inside, removing the pool, etc.).
