Dear Virginia and Jim, Thank you for the wonderful home exchange. We had a great time in San Francisco, a vacation that would have been so much diminished without our staying at your lovely home. Your neighborhood is a beautiful residential area and is very convenient; only a block from cafe's and restaurants, stores and underground transportation to key parts of San Francisco. Your original Craftsman style house is very comfortable and furnished with period antiques and Craftsman style furniture. We felt so relaxed sitting in the garden with the lovely waterfall pond. We appreciated the excellent care you took of our home and, especially of our two cats. When we arrived home they were happy and well-cared for. They even seemed to miss you. You were also very friendly and easy-going which made it a pleasure to arrange the exchange. Once again, thank you. We had a great vacation. warm regards, Richard and Susan
