I thought you folks might like them. I wanted to include Oregon in the wid-Weast mindset but we all know that Oregon is gettin kali-ized rapidly so I didn't add us to the list. Even though, in my town all those rules apply as well. We have one of the greatest steelhead spots in the country less than 20 minutes from my doorstep and get a lot of "elite" types there in season. Never seen so many mountaineers and tahoes in my life.

The saddest thing for me was watching the state formerly known as California get turned into what it is now. When I was a child, much of what is written here applied in most of the state, including the Bay Area and LA burbs and hinterlands. I can clearly remember guns on the gun racks in pick up trucks as recently as the 1980s in many areas within a 50 mile radius of downtown SF. Now it would be unusual to even see a gun rack, including ones with fishing rods in them instead of rifles and shotguns! Cattle grazed a short walk from my childhood home and we used to get in apricot fights as a spring ritual. My, how times have changed and for the worse! The thing that adds insult to injury is that most of the quaternary urbanites who now dominate the state are from the very Eastern liberal hell holes that we used to make fun of (I say used to because doing so now is considered "hate speech" with dire consequences here in the PC police state.)
