they paved paradise and put up a parking lot...

My father in law left NH at the age of 18 and moved to San Diego. He actually lived in Tijuana above a whore house. He went to San Diego state and worked at the Convair factory at night. He learned fluent Spanish from the place he lived. Which led to his career in international sales.
He said southern California was a paradise in the 1950s. Literally heaven on earth. He was so glad he lived there when he did.
He is so glad he left when he did. Long before it got screwed up. It is a real shame what it has become.
