I was born in West Chester County and lived there as an infant and toddler for a couple years. Grew up in upstate NY. Found my way to CA after college and that was the end of the moving for me. Dealing with the politics and taxes here is absolutely brutal and it just keeps getting worse every year. But CA is so spectacular and the weather so good it is very hard to leave. The amazing thing is that, even with 5 million people around us, it’s very easy to go 10 or 15 minutes into the hills, hike a mile, and be completely isolated and roaming with the mountain lions. Yesterday, NickCarraway posted an article about a bear sighting next door to Carmel, CA! Soon we’ll have bears AND lions to worry about.
wow, so great, thanks for posting!!
