When we moved from Georgia to Florida it was number 10.
Now it’s number three. From 5M to 20M
No more long walks exploring in the woods.
And Alligators were much sparser - you could swim in most freshwater above big cypress swamp.

It is amazing here in the San Francisco Bay Area...with all the population growth here (now 7 million in the greater Bay Area), I can still head a few minutes up the road from the heart of Silicon Valley and be in some very remote areas where you don't see any buildings and see hardly any people on the trails. I joined a hiking group in the Sunol Ohlone Wilderness today (between Fremont and Livermore) and we passed only one other person in almost 9 miles.
