1. San Francisco is still in Central California. Once you cross the Golden Gate and get to Marin, you are in Northern California. San Franciscans generally refer to SF as being in N CA, even on the news they commit that faux pas.
2. Some of my non-Californian friends take the liberty to call me Frisco Kid, so I take the liberty to use the term Frisco, which is considered to be derogatory. I often say I'm from the Bay Area, although that's confusing to folks from, for example, the Cheaspeake Bay. It's also a false statemnet, as I'm not even a Californian, but only live here by choice.
3. Morro Bay is great. I love the shore and the local elephant sea lion population there -- and I love visiting my dream house, the Hearst Castle.
