while i was neither born there, nor live there now, more the 40 of my 72 years were lived in placer and nevada counties, along the i-80 corridor, which is also the route of the first transcontinental railroad, which employed my father for much of his life and even myself for a brief period. from the age of three, until joining the air force after high school, i grew up therefor in california, the northern half of it, the eastern half of the northern half of it. the communities of truckee, roseville, sacramento, colfax, auburn, norden (on donner summit), and meadow vista. so while i'm not there now, the forests of northern sierras are the home i grew up in. and reno nevada where i live now, is only a few tens of miles to the east of there. the ten years from 77 to 87 that i lived in oregon were the longest so far i've lived any where else. having moved up to reno in 2012, depending on how much longer i live and do so here, in another few years i will have barely lived here longer. so yah, california, my part of it, is where i've lived more of my life then any place else.
Yes. I live in San Diego. Just happened to look at this sub forum today, normally just check Barefoot and a few others. Was just curious what Random Thoughts looked like.
The weather is getting warmer. Let's get in shape walking down (and up) the steep steps to Black's Beach. Platonic friend for the workout desired.

I live in a Southern / Midwestern wannabe area of California , aka RedneKKKistan, Central KKKalifornia . The mayor of this town was a Gang Affiliated Police Chief for 17 years . And the Fresbilly Evilvangelicals voted him in as Mayor .... Fresno's Poor Man's version of a combination of PrimaDonald and Jeffrey Epstein.... literally !!!! And the majority of people are dysfunctional and paralyzed from the neck up .... Fresno, is the Jerry Springer Capital of the Westcoast .
