Starting with San Francisco and progressing through San Mateo, San Rafael, San Juan Bautista, Santa Cruz, Santa Barbara, San Diego, etc., etc. until you get to Los Angeles.
FWIW, I have spent 4 of the last 6 weeks in California, and it certainly isn’t the place where I was born and raised — or the place where my great grand parents pioneered.
I'm from a lot of different places, but most specifically the one you refer to. I don't like to publisize personal details on the net because at the rate we are headed they will hunt us down and exterminate us based on our internet profiles. I too have spent the last year there for business reasons. I hate how it has changed and what has become of it. I would prefer to save my memories of that wonderful place and time that I grew up there. It is suicide by liberalism. Enough said. Too much said.
