...Every weekday morning, Mechanical Engineer John Buchan, 23, dresses neatly in a suit and tie and roller-skates seven miles across San Francisco to his office. He is not alone.

On the boardwalk in Venice, Calif., a thousand skaters may appear on a Sunday, navigating perilously among pedestrians, while rolling guitarists serenade the sunbathers.

Each weekday morning when Attorney Charles Moriarty, 50, a former state senator, boards the 7:10 ferry for a 35-minute commute to a glass-and-steel skyscraper in Seattle, he leaves behind what his wife Marion calls "a paradise"-Restoration Point on Puget Sound's Bainbridge Island. Founded in 1890 as a summer retreat for a wealthy group of Ivy League sailing buffs from the East, the point is now the duchy of their descendants, whose 16 stately homes, gardens, tennis courts and nine-hole golf course nestle among towering cedars and firs. Seattlites have nicknamed this...
