California is a great state to be from, I lived there 30 years in both LA  and Frisco. No way I would go back for more than a week now.

Hey OldBuddy,

I just added you to my buddy list!  I see you are from Oregon ...
I consider myself an Oregonian but I have been in Idaho now for 10 years ...

I was in Southern California for 6 years when I served in the US Marine Corps
stationed in Camp Pendleton just north of San Diego ...

I have a sister that lives near San Jose not too far from San Francisco ...

My brother-in-law was in Pendleton, I went to Fort Ord in the Army back in '61.

     I move out because there was too much crime. Life is short!...for overpopulation problems, natural disasters and social and economic issues. Quality of life matters. Do not forget California I still love you because you are beautiful.

I lived in Eagle Point when I first moved to Oregon, but now I am closer to Portland.

No, I haven't gone.  I would like to go.  I was always thinking the San Francisco area (Greater Bay Area) would a good place to go.  If you are going in the winter maybe you would want to southern California.

I live in So Cal and have family up in No Cal too. Believe it or not, Tim, sometimes near Frisco it feels warmer in the winter than it does in the summer. Same amount of fog, but sometimes less wind in the winter.

If you're thinking about being near Frisco, I highly recommend Pier 39. Sea lions, candy, shops, and yummy food (Boudin's, Ghirardelli, Bubba Gump). You can also take a pretty cool bus tour from near the pier that takes you over the bridge and gives some pretty interesting history of the city, although I'm not sure how much it costs. There's also a rather famous ice cream shop in Oakland that you can Google, but I generally don't recommend going to Oakland unless you know exactly where you're going and stay in a group since crime can be kinda bad there. Lombard Street in Frisco is pretty cool too. It's the crookedest street in the world.

In So Cal, take your pick. From beaches to Disneyland to clubs in Hollywood to the world famous zoo and wildlife park in San Diego and Sea World, etc. It's less about "What is there to do?" and more "What are you interested in?" You can hike, you can ride horseback, you can hit a theme park, you can party, you can even hunt ghosts.

If you make it out here, hope you have an awesome time!  ;D

I lived in San Diego, California for 20 years.
I just recently moved to Oklahoma.

I miss it out there. It's expensive, but it's beautiful.

I live in Cali...

There are so many things to visit in Cali.

Castles, Lake Tahoo, the ocean, Disneyland, California Adventure, Knots Berry Farm, Six Flags, Discovery Kindom San Diego Zoo, San Fran Zoo, Universal Studios, HollyWood, Hard Rock Cafes, Whale Watching, Horseback riding,

Rent dirt bikes, go Hang diving, cave and mine tours.

There are so many things to do in Cali...

The best thing about Cali is... if you visit upper Cali.. you can go to the Ocean... and 2 hours the other way you can get to mountains.  There also is Yosemite.

Southern Cali you have Los Angeles, Hollywood, San Diego, and all the attractions down there.

You will have a wonderful time here in Cali.. there is so much here to enjoy.

Happy Earnings!!  :thumbsup:
