That's a great guess, Fan. When was the last time you were there? It was about . . . let's see . . . 28 years ago for me.

It's pretty close to me as compared to you, but I guess it's been few years (maybe four or five). My mom and the kids usually go at least a couple time a year, but fishing is not my forte.

I'm not sure I can fix it, I'm going to have to try to replicate the settings on my desktop, since that is Vista as well.

Vista makes me crazy! It's a little better now that I've made a few adjustments with the help of the tech person at work.

We have come to the end of my knowledge of San Francisco bodies of water.

I'll make something up - who knows, maybe there's a 49er Lake out there.

BONUS CLUE: We needed a couple Californians on this one, or a couple of tree huggers.

I'll post Clue #7, and if you don't know it from that, you may google.
