    Steve, it would be a real pleasure meeting up with you as well.
    Another friend had recommended Ventura as a good place to look.
    Yes, it's cold here, but we're used to it; the main reason we're going out West is to attend WPPI in Las Vegas.
    Coupled with the long winter, and our lack of success at finding a home to buy here in Ottawa, we figured "Why not get out of town for a while?"
    I just need to be able to keep working while I'm away, which isn't hard, but would need some preparation/arrangement.

    I’ll see if I can come up with some ideas this week.

    2 months is tough. I'd look at Caltech rentals, or other college rentals. Air B&B, etc. I'll put the word out around here. Again, if you're here, let's get together. Our neighbor has a 7 yo boy. There are 2 girls a couple of doors down age 8 & 6.

    Wish you well, happy new year!

    Thank you, Mark; would be great to have kids meet and play, even only once.
    We've scoured sublets, AirBnB, VRBO, etc. But LA got quite expensive while I wasn't looking, and Steve makes a number of good points as to why.

    Best, Peter

    Peter, would love to! Thank you for the well-wishes.
    Just want to warn everyone that last time I posted a "Coming to LA" thread, we had our furnace die on us, and spent $11K for a new HVAC system, completely obliterating any chance of going anywhere for a long time.
    But this time, we have to be in Las Vegas at the end of February, so we're cautiously optimistic

    I've put the word out to a person who has short term rentals.
