I can’t escape this place soon enough. Unfortunately I probably still have a few years left here due to the commitments of elderly relatives, elderly pets, and a liberal son who can’t seem to grasp the concepts of adulthood and personal responsibility. To me California is like living in a snow globe of an idyllic beach (or any type of region, technically we have it all - mountains, deserts, etc.). Point being that it’s mostly great if I’m just sitting at home and enjoying my backyard. Doesn’t take much for some stupid influence (Newsom, 💩 schools, taxes, homeless people robbing others and starting fires, garbage, traffic, LGBTQ groomers, etc.) to shake up my tranquility and f*ck everything up.

I left 7 years later than I could have.

I'm still looking to get those 7 years back.

Think of yourself.

You must put your oxygen mask on first if you wish to save others.

I understand! I’m in the same boat, in a way. I don’t want to stay in Commifornia. I was forced to retire years early because I didn’t comply with CONvid. I was caught off guard and I thought I had years to plan my “getaway”. Where does one go to find like minded people that are AWAKE? If I didn’t have the beauty of the ocean and nature...I thank God for that!

When my employer left the East Bay for Houston in 1995 that move hurt. Our 6 yrs there had been idyllic. Looking back 28 yrs, we were SO lucky – we haven’t had to live with the unrelenting descent into Dante’s inferno.
