What do you think when someone says California?

Growing up in Ashland, Oregon, about 15 miles from the California border, I got to explore N. California a fair amount. I've always said N. California is beautiful and theSierras are spectacular. An old saying when I grew up, was 'Don't Californicate Oregon' but after the SFO earthquake they moved up in droves and now, unfortunately, Southern Oregon is as liberal as Berkeley. Still great outdoor country, but much too liberal for me and the cost of living is getting prohibitive. From a scenery standpoint though, California is a diverse as it gets.

Actually you do. Paiute http://www.tucalifornia.org/paiutecutthroat.htm and
Lahontan Cutthroat http://www.tucalifornia.org/lahontancutthroat.htm. I believe that the latter used to reach enormous proportions until their environment was destroyed and the historical range wiped out.

Take offense ??? Are you serious ??? If I took offense to anything on this site I would have been driven off long ago ;)
Thats one of the things I like about being here. The people that stay are sometimes opinionated but we agree to disagree and life goes on and we all remain friends. I mean look at the rallies we have planned, you don't want to meet the people on the site if you don't consider them friends.

Nico, CaddmannQ probably didn't realize that you were such a sensitive person :'(.
We'd fish you and Sue out of the Pacific if that happened. (Well Sue anyway).......... ;)

What I've always thought: California --- North = good
South = don't want to go there too often.

Sorry Nico. If it makes you feel better I wouldn't care if NYC and Washington DC fell off into the ocean either.

I think they must all be fished out. All I ever see is rainbows, and in a blue moon maybe a brown.
