Haven't been there in over 50 years (1973), guess its probably changed a bit. Was stationed at Travis AFB 70-73. Seemed like California had everything you could want, mountains, ocean desert forests etc
California is a most beautiful state, just as Tsgt Joe says. I'd still be there if it weren't for the looney's and lefties turning it into Cuba/Venezuela.
A strong earthquake would do wonders for that place, followed by a mass-conflagration style fire. Problem is that the ones that lived would move out of there to other parts of US. In the end it's just better to keep the infection contained to the bay area.
Have 2nd hand memories of S.F. Grandmother and her mother lived in S.F. in the '30s. Grandma revisited often through the early '70s. Mom and Dad visited off and on through the late '70s. All agreed it was a "world class" city. I often dreamed of living there ... sort of a modern Nick Charles looking for his Nora. Commies ruin everything.
Been there many times, mostly in the 70s & early 80s, beautiful but man, you can keep it now. Would not live there if it was free

ReplyDeleteThis is one of the few major cities where a dog can end up stepping in human $hit.

ReplyDeleteWe left there in the summer of 75 and moved to WNC. Still live within about 60 miles from Cullowhee, NC.
ReplyDeleteWhen we left, Reagan was still governor and Pete Wilson was Mayor of San Diego. SoCal was a great place to live back then.
Last I visited that craphole was in '63.
ReplyDeleteJust finished working there last month.
ReplyDeleteIt is just as nasty as all the stories claim.
I expected SoCal to be a war zone, but it is only slightly worse than it was in the 90s. Oakland, however has become straight up Mad Max.
I was never so happy to drive through AZ in my life.
