    Northern California is VERY nice (pics)

    For those of you who do not live in California, I'm sure you have a certain pre-conceived notion of what California is like. Hollywood would like to have you believe all of California is like LA. That is not true at all.

    There is no place I'd rather live than Northern California. We have beautiful mountains, waterfalls, incredible lakes... I could go on and on about the beauty of Northern Cal.

    And the beaches up here are nothing like what you see on the movies.

    Here are a few images from Northern California. All of them are located very close to where I live:

              Northern California is beautiful. I just can't stand the cold. I'm in San Francisco where the weather is pretty consistant. I do wish it would get super warmer in the summer but at least it's never super cold nor does it snow either.

              I could never live in the snow. Visit yes, but live there I couldn't.

              Awesome pics btw

                    That is Burney Falls. It's not far from me.

                          Except for the fact the damn ground tends to shake on occassion it's not a bad state to check out. I wouldn't live there though since I prefer my house to remain standing.

                              I lived in California for 34 years. In fact, I was born there. Being a native for that long of a time should make my opinion count for something.

                              I agree, the scenery in California is great. Especially, the National Parks. But, the state is a mess, politically as well as socially. The electric power struggle is a joke. I think Arnold is in over his head. Unless he starts using his power to control the greedy corporate constuants and cut the bullshit redtape and terminate all the fuckers who rape the state, it will all go to hell.

                              California is the most powerful state because the population has a massive sub-conscious imagination. A lot of innovations come out of CA. because I believe the people's mind state is different from the rest of the country. They're also mostly crazy! Which is good and bad. The state is practically a country of its own.

                              I'll tell you this, if there's a big earthquake hits along the San Andreas fault line, the whole state could fall into the ocean. Know this, the land mass is located on shelf off the continent.

                              If this thread gets more messages I'll speak more of the state.

                                I'd much prefer earthquakes to Tornados.

                                Anyway, over where I'm at there has never been a strong quake.

                                      If you draw a horizontal line above Redding on the map, all the way across California, and then you drew a horizontal line across below Chico on the map, those pics would all fall in the area between the two lines.

                                            Over here in Chico it gets over 100 degrees in the summer. And then up at my house we get 6" to 36" of snow in the winter. But I live 18 miles East of Chico. Chico never gets cold enough for snow.

                                                Exactly... so it gets super nice and warm in the summer but the trade off is that it does get really cold in the winter. Might not snow exactly where you're at, but your still close enough where it's far, far colder than San Francisco.

                                                My ideal place is somewhere like Hawaii or Florida where it's warm all year round

                                                I'm just a pussy when it comes to the cold though. But as far as beauty goes, Northern California Rocks!!!!!!

                                                Regardelss those pics are stunning!

                                                  I would still personally take Nor Cal.

                                                    Earthquakes aren't all that bad. They're like roller coaster rides. Too bad so many people freak out when they occur. The local authorities can't do anything about it. Why do so many people call the police when they happen. What the fuck are they supposed to do.

                                                    I've been in many of them. The first one I can remember is the Sylmar quake. Now, I live in Florida. So, I guess hurricanes are on the list here. I'm kind of looking foward to be in one. I'm not a sadist or anything like that. I just want to feel the planet in a different manner! I used to love the thunder and lightning strorms down in the desert. They were fabulous. Nature gives me such a rush when she decides to let us know that SHE is in control. Remember the last part of the movie 2010. "We're just tenants on this planet; what would happen if the landlord decided to give us all notice!

                                                      Actually, Chico is never colder than SF. When I leave my office in Chico for SF I always bring a sweater even if I don't have to wear one downtown Chico.

                                                            Here's a picture of the San Gabriel Mountains in L.A. What you see on the top of the mountain are the radio and TV antennas. To the right of the picture (which is not seen) is where the Mt. Wilson Observatory is located.

The beauty of Northern CA can't be argued, but Souther FL has its scenery too. Beside the babes that is. The drive from the mainland down to Keywest is breath-taking. OK, no mountains.

                                                                                            California is a great place to visit and take pictures. But I'd never live there. Far too expensive. The state sales tax is like 10% or some crazy number. I forget what it was when I was in Hollywood last, but it was alot.

                                                                                            Now Canada on the other hand... I am considering moving there. I have had about all I can take of this country and its sky-high taxes and stupid people. I heard that you can get a 300 acre plot up there for around $20K USD.

                                                                                                  California is a great place to visit and take pictures. But I'd never live there. Far too expensive. The state sales tax is like 10% or some crazy number. I forget what it was when I was in Hollywood last, but it was alot.

                                                                                                  Now Canada on the other hand... I am considering moving there. I have had about all I can take of this country and its sky-high taxes and stupid people. I heard that you can get a 300 acre plot up there for around $20K USD.
                                                                                                  you wanna move up to Canada and here I am talking to my boyfriend just now about leaving it.
