Are you from California?

“I haven't been posting too much lately. Who else is still around from California?”

“I'm still here.

Where ever here is.”

“I'm FROM CA :)”

“I was born in San Diego, lived in the "East Bay" longer than any place else in my life 84-92, but not since. I'm a Washingtonian now. :D”

“Don't post a whole lot anymore either, but still around & still getting out when I can. My doggie & I just returned from a day-hike, she almost got us both sprayed by a skunk! :)”

“me me me! San Diego”

“Steve: wherevery you go, there you are....



Me, Mr.Hyde, and BowlderSon are still here.”

“I'm still here also!

Hopefully we will run into each other again in the wilderness like we did last summer!”

“I stayed at a motel in Calif 2-3 times..does that count :)”

“Born and raised...”

“I'm still here, I guess.”

“Yep, in Orange County ("behind the Orange curtain"). Don't post here too often either, since its more of an east coast BB.”

“i have noticed that the east coast has taken over here”

“Thats only because we're out backpacking most of the time ;-)”

“Wingding I don't think it's a matter of the East Coasters taking over. It's just that while you Californians are out doing things like winter sports or hiking in the desert, we East Coaters are trapped inside our houses while it rains and the winds blow 60 mph.”

“Landscaper and I are still here. Hi, Kathy!”

“I'll be in California next week.”

“Yep - backpacking 12 months a year! I love California. Coldest so far was -10 in January. It doesn't get any better.”

“While they do not actually live in CA, I consider the PNW folks close cousins.

They consider rain and high winds an average weekend.

Ya gotta respect that ;-)”

“Stve - My sister says the entire Siskyou (spelling?) should be handed over to Oregon. You are lucky enough to live on the very edge of all that is good!”

“Actually, I consider my residence to be the State of Jefferson ;-)

”

“Hi Wingding, I'm still here. Just returned from a trip on the coast. AAAHHH beautiful weather....and company.
We may be planning a trip in the mid Ca region for May. Maybe you will join. I'll post it here if it occurs.”

“I think we need a california group trip. Californiapalooza?

songbyrd - i'll watch for your trip posting.

solitary hiker - I grew up in upstate NY - I don't know how could have forgotten that trapped feeling.”

“hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....”

“The only problem is California is soooo big - where could we have this palooza thing?”

“So songbyrd came over to the coast and didn't stop in. Harrumph!”

“I was born and raised in Paramount,Ca. Home of Paramount Perlite amd the Zamboni ice machine. To dangerous to go back.”

“If everybody had an ocean across the USA....
Yah!”

“Hi Kathy....Born and Raised... I haven't moved.

Rumor has it that the Snows (Nymph & Dude)are moving.

“Califpalooza in Yosemite!

Landscaper, Hi neighbor, I grew up in Lynwood.”

“You know you ALL wanna be where I am!”

“I'll keep ya all posted. And ya all better be there if it happens. :p”

“My father was stationed in San Diego in the late 40s... If my parents hadn't returned to Georgia after he left the Navy, I would've been a Californian (don't mean to scare you guys...).”

“oh Tilt, you would SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO fit in here!”

“navi & landscaper - I was born in South Gate and then worked there the first 15 years after high school.”

“Pamela - How close are you to the beach?”

“6 miles as the crow flies”

“Still here also...”

“over the hills”

“Songbyrd - I'll be there - that's unless work gets in the way. Unfortunately the work that fuels my fun also gets in the way of it at times.

Kathy”

“wannabp - that's right - yosemite will be californiapalooza.

Kathy”

“WindWalker - What's the story on SN & SD?”

“Okay Pam -- I'll take that as a Compliment, LOL”

“Hey TILT...WHATCHA doin the end of March?”

“Are y'all thinking about this year for the CApalooza?”

“My son was born in San Diego, but he's doing fine after the therapy.”

“Hey....if you make CApalooza later on in the year.....say septmeber......there is a good chance I could make an appearence...”

“september is a great month for backpacking in california”

“I'm not really sure Phil, Snowy told me the other day that she was cleaning the garage
because they were moving...I just threw that out there to stir the pot ;)

I don't think they are leaving So Cal just yet...maybe just better digs??”

“WindWalker - I think they are too young to retire. It has me thinking now!”
