Huge relief. It's been cool yesterday and today. I mean I lived in southern California for 10 years and it was super hot. I had an air conditioner part of the time but still hot. So it wasn't too bad here in Washington, it only got into the 100's one day. But I did have dehydration from it and had to see the doctor. Guess I'm getting old.Must be a relief to have rain.... :)
Well, down there at least in the south of California it's basically almost desert, right? Kind of, Arizona-by-the-Sea...Huge relief. It's been cool yesterday and today.

Inland it is desert, very dry, near the coast it's more like an Oasis. Palm trees and beauty. They have tourist sites there near the coast. We used to go to the beach called La Jolla, here's a picture:Well, down there at least in the south of California it's basically almost desert, right? Kind of, Arizona-by-the-Sea...

I believe it was taken somewhere near Hobart.
What about SA? The fishing is good there.

LOL, I used to visit La Jolla, but I lived in San Diego.This is where you live? Can you adopt me? Lol It's beautiful!
Na I like the bush mate.
There isnt even a tree in SA for some shade.
NSW south coast would be my pick.
So long as I can visit Victoria I will stay here but its looking unlikely
Lofty Ranges has some trees, maybe Mt Gambier also, a lot of SA is salt bush and red dirt, you don't want to be out in the middle of a Summer's day where I came from though about 300km north of Adelaide from the base of the Flinders Ranges, just about every Summer day in high 30s to mid 40s.

Hwy 1?Pacific Coast Highway, California

- Big Sur, etc..

I was there.. many years ago.
- Short trip.
I've been up there a few times. I worked in Encinitas and had an aunt that lived in Carlsbad, both off the SR-1. We used to do land surveying for the rich and famous in Rancho Santa Fe. I saw Arnold Schwarzenegger house and Heavens Gate where all those crazy people committed suicide Heaven's Gate (religious group) - Wikipedia.Yes..
- State Route 1 (SR I)
@Truman the Levite I know the feeling!Back in 1978, as a teenager, I was hitchhiking to California to visit my Aunt Vera, who lived in Anaheim. After 2,000 miles, I was picked up by a large man who had just gotten out of jail for killing someone. He didn't like hippies. He was threatening to kill me.
I managed to get out of his truck, hitch-hiked another 30 miles to Calgary, and then ended my hitch-hiking career.
If I had gone and stayed with my Aunt, I may have ended up being a part of the Anaheim Vineyard. I was, and still am, Jesus people.
I love California!
