The biggest news, and the focus of this post, is that my wife and I moved in June across the country - all the way from Boston to Redwood City in the San Francisco Bay area of California!
This move came about because of a new job at Stanford University, and the change of pace has been interesting and refreshing, though we both do miss Boston and the East coast a lot.
I would say the most exciting part of this move pertaining to scootering is the fact that I can now ride essentially 24/7 12 months of the year. As "winter" approaches, a "rainy season" is setting in here (supposedly), but given that the night-time temperatures rarely reach the winter day-time temps in Boston, I can pretty much enjoy continuous riding.
This change in scenery means I can update my riding map as well

I think uneven tire wear will become my biggest issue with California riding - since moving, I've noticed considerable squaring off of my rear tire from all the prolonged curve-free riding.
