We have a few California escapees at our church along with a couple Washingtonians.

“We have a few California escapees at our church along with a couple Washingtonians.”
I completely escaped Calif. in 1979.
I ended up in Washington state, for 20 years, which was much better, but not by a lot.
After 20 years in Washington state, I finally migrated to Hawaii.
I despise Democrats, so I only moved due to getting a better job and better home environment for my family.
Three of the bluest states with a decent climate. All I had to do was tolerate Democrat idiocy.
Life isn’t perfect.

One of my friends was singing the praises of Portland, OR while she was packing up to move to the hills of NC.
