I Celebrate 18 Years In The San Francisco Bay Area

Today is the beginning of my 18th year in the San Francisco Bay area. I have never lived in one place so long in my life!!!!! In early September of 1996 I left Houston with less than $200 in my pockets and all the personal possessions that I had. I took a Greyhound bus to San Jose, California. As I rode into town I listened to a radio station playing songs in Portuguese and enjoyed the beautiful day. I could not imagine the hard times and the good moments that lay ahead of me. My heart was full of hope and joy that afternoon.
