if I could afford it. I'm retired and was initally transfered to Texas in '87 by my employer and it does not even resemble the state it was when I first came.

If California hated? Maybe by some people who have never been there...I personally like Northern California the best...the climate, the beauty, the culture, the people.

I think a lot of the animosity towards California is just jealousy. Admittedly, I am jealous.

Be thankful you live in where you do....the grass is no always greener elsewhere. ☮
