<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Jim Dale, post: 5518462, member: 100459&quot;]I live in North Carolina and my parents use to live south of San Francisco.&nbsp; My father took me over the Golden Gate Bridge.&nbsp; I was shocked that you had to pay to go over a bridge that taxpayers had already paid for and continue to pay to maintain in the extremely high taxes.&nbsp; I had a job offer in 1979 with USC in LA.&nbsp; They were going to pay me almost double what I was being paid in NC.&nbsp; I was excited and accepted their offer.&nbsp; I flew back into Raleigh-Durham airport and when I saw those trees, I hated to call them, but I did, and they offered up the ante, but I still couldn&#039;t take the job.&nbsp; My wife told me that she would leave me if I took that job.&nbsp; Well, she left me anyway about 10 years later to marry her high school sweetheart.&nbsp; </p><p>Whoops!&nbsp; I&#039;m sorry for digressing. </p><p>Anyway, I thought the Golden Gate Bridge was stunning.&nbsp; All we have here is a boat that takes us to the Outer Banks.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
