What should I keep in mind when planning to move over to Santa Rosa, California from NY?
A couple of monts ago we had a wildfire thar came to town and about 5,000 homes burned to the ground. My wife and I were lucky as the home 60 feet from our home was reduced to ashes. Before the fire there was only 1% vacancy rate, now many people who lost their homes have had to leave town to find a place to live until they can rebuild.My wife and I were born in Santa Rosa and we still love the city. When I was 5 years old there were 10,000 people in Santa Rosa. Today we are at about 200,000 and there is room for more. We would welcome you and recommend you check out where you would like to live here and if there is a house available. Check with the Real Estate people to see what is available.

Guilt about taking my cat to the shelter?
Around 6 years ago, we went to the local animal shelter where we used to live and adopted a young kitten, and we spayed her. She was a wonderful cat, we named her Ana and we kept her all those years, until a few months ago. A couple years ago, we found two abandoned kittens (brothers) on a hiking trail near the river completely by accident, and immediately took them in, even though Ana didn't like other animals that well. She could tolerate them, though, as long as they didn't get in her way. We treated all of them very well, but this winter we decided that now or never was the time to move to California, and found an apartment that only allowed 2 pets. We didn't want to separate the two brothers, and frankly they were a little more receptive and friendly than Ana, so we tried as best we could to find someone who could take her. Nobody would. I even printed out fliers and tacked them on random house doors all around my neighborhood, along with posting an ad for her online, and still nobody responded. I read news articles about how horribly over-populated with pets the local shelters were, and that they simply didn't have room for all the animals coming in, which distressed me. It's a bad economy these days and no one has the money to look after pets, or take them in, I suppose, and not enough people are spaying and neutering their pets. I was miserable all that last week moving out, thinking, "If ONLY someone would come along and say yes, just ONE yes, that would absolve me of all my problems and I'd be totally happy and guilt free". I was constantly dreading a future where I was in California, but still lamented Ana's bad fate if we couldn't find someone. It got to the point where no matter what happened, I just wanted to get the week over with, and the dreading would be gone. No more being stuck in limbo and what ifs. One night close to moving day, I just felt like I knew inside that there would be no good ending to this. She was destined to be sheltered. I openly sobbed while I pet her, saying, "I'm sorry I failed you", while she kept her eyes closed in ignorant bliss on my comfortable bed. -----Continued-----
Santa Rosa, CA: When is the DMV least busy for drop-ins?
Hahahahahahahaha! Your hilarious. Listen I was born and raised in Rosa, so let me tell you exactly how to do it. Get up 30 minutes earlier and go to peteluma DMV. Seriously. We've literally timed it. There is no good day to go to the DMV in Santa Rosa. But you can go to the Peteluma DMV and including the drive time there and back, you'll save anywhere from 20–40 minutes or more. It's pretty easy to find, take the first exit in Peteluma go over the freeway, make a right and down by the Rail Road tracks you'll take another right and go all the way back. But remember the trick is to be there at least 30 minutes before they open. Not only is it less busy, but usually they will actually wheel a cart out 15 minutes before they open and go down the line asking why your there and hand you the forms you need and so forth. And, personal opinion, they are usually in a much better mood. Probably because they happy they don't work at the Santa Rosa branch. Last time I was there was about 2 years ago, and my friend had to renew his license so he could go to court and get a fine waived. He didn't want to get up early with me. I went to peteluma, took my written exam to change my license from Nevada to California (I moved for over 5 years so I had to take the written)…then drove back to Santa Rosa, stopped at McDonald's and got food, went by Costco to get gas, and then to the SR DMV to get my friend only to end up waiting for him another 25 minutes, I almost ate his mc muffin. Go to peteluma, chances are it will take half the time.
How can I find out where a website's servers are located?
No need to visit any portals or download any software.Just open command window and use command tracert(space) website. This is command to find ip address of the associated website and tells how data reaches you from the webserver when you actually type the web address in your browser.For example, if I want to know the location of servers of Flipkart.com, then simply type tracert flipkart.com. It shows you the ip address and you can check location by any ip tracing site. Just copy paste that ip address in search bar of that site. One of such site is IP Location Finder - Geolocation.163.53.78.128 is the ip address of flipkart web servers. Now copy paste this address to ip tracing site.As one can guess, servers of flipkart are located in Banglore.Similarly, you will find servers of facebook.com are located in Ireland.You can use this on any website.Thanks for reading.
