If you want to keep your sanity then get the hell out of California. I’m planning my escape.
Move out, and move to somewhere with coyotes and great horned owls.
People still have dogs, but not so many little barking yippers that they could try to take shopping with them.
6 more months and I will be free of the heavy shackles of bondage here behind the Pink Curtain of Gulag California. 6 more months and I am moving to America, leaving Communist occupied Kalifornia. 6 more months ! Can’t wait. I am counting the days.
And I am planning my escape from the other coast (CT).
