After the first season, short store hours, and planning better for shopping trips was much easier. Now I enjoy having all my errands done early, and being able to sit and watch the sunset or listen to loons in the evening rather than running around doing shopping or picking up from the cleaners! BTW my blood pressure is now far lower than when I am in LA! If you really love the area, the adjustments to life style will come quickly!
Been to Calif a few times for work and sorry but I'd take it any day over NH and I've been coming "up here" for 30 years. My main reason is the winters, hate them. Although I've never done LA I stay or at least hang around Santa Barbara when I'm out there.
