How's the view???........

[moreluck]

Not exactly. If you live in Cali, you really need to travel the entire state to enjoy all it has to offer.

I did travel (a little) in Cali...….Stockton and farm country and Sacramento and San Francisco.....can't compare to SoCal. It only get interesting when travelling north and the palms turn to pines...….Shasta is beautiful.
We drove from San Clemente to Portland.....most of the drive was BORING!! SoCal is my paradise!!

Nice place to visit but wouldn't want to live there. Been there a few times---way too expensive and too much traffic.

Yep.

California and Florida make me feel claustrophobic.

Did they ever get the smog situation under control?

Driving back to LA from Vegas, coming out of the mountains at 11:00am, I was was

wondering why the fog hadn't lifted.... it was smog.


But, you gotta like the golf courses.

This is a mapping app I have been playing with. This shows my commuting time around Atlanta plus my delivery area with a few photos.

That was cool!

That was cool!

I don't remember hitting 104 mph on the way home down I-20 West, maybe 80mph at the most!

I agree, that was a cool app @scratch.

I was surprised when I visited the Phoenix area last year. My eyes were watering from all the air pollution.

The Bay Area has it's share of hazy days in the summer. Although not as much as LA for sure.

Ah, how about a drive up highway1 to Carmel. That's some of the most beautiful coastline in the world.

Camped at Pfeiffer Big Sur a few times, you don't get that kind of Coastal Forest beauty in So Cal except up in Big Bear/Arrowhead area...but it is not the same and not on the coast.

Been to Hotel Del Coronado a few times, quaint.

Many years ago my brother and I hiked 17 Mile Drive from Monterey to Carmel, absolutely beautiful.

I like Monterrey much better than Carmel....more down to earth and not so artsy-fartsy! The coastline is gorgeous.

If you like hiking, I highly recommend the Cone Peak Sea to Sky hike. Tallest coastal mountain in the lower 48.

Don't remember ever hearing about that hike. Looks gorgeous. We were just talking about going back to Big Sur...
