Well Kalifornia IS the choom capitol of the world as far as usage goes...trillions of brain cells destroyed there every single day...
Faithhopecharity, I used to be like you. I was born far away from LA and very near Hearst Castle, and was raised in one of the most beautiful seaside small towns in California. Lived there until I was in my early 30s, and am still related to literally hundreds of people there. Think SLO County, where "everybody" wants to live and "everybody" asks me, how could you have ever moved away?
Where I grew up, hating L.A. was the most popular indoor sport. It still is. All the people who tell me how awful L.A. (more accurately, Southern California) is have ... never lived here, and the people in L.A. who hate it have never lived anywhere else, but they know how great it is elsewhere. It's amazing how much people know about places they've never actually lived!
I moved to Southern California (which to the rest of the world is "L.A.," as chrisinoc sort of points out!) almost 25 years ago. I've lived in Los Angeles, Orange, and San Bernardino counties, always smack dab in the middle of some 10 million souls, and have only grown to LOVE my beautiful Los Angeles and So Cal more and more every year.
As for "stunning scenery" -- just last week, under the bright and beautiful warm sun, I swam in a 50-meter by 33-meter DEEP pool right next to the railroad tracks (I love trains) with gorgeous powerful locomotives roaring by on occasion, and the entire backdrop behind was a mountain range layered with snow. Truly beautiful, just breathtaking in more than one way.
Anybody who doesn't understand how much stunning scenery there actually is in So Cal ("Los Angeles") is either willfully blind with an attitude, or has never actually spent much time here.
I love L.A. (by that I mean Southern California, LA and Orange and San Bernardino and Riverside counties) and am grateful that the Lord's good path led me here!
