...How empty was it?!

3 - 4 dots and I hit the panic button. Today, it was $4.49 in Valencia.

Water shortage, gas prices are up, fires ---- heaven. I get great weather, diverse culture, beaches, mountains, friendly car people, Fast Intentions, and Specialty Z. It's a wash.

I couldn't agree more. Since moving from San Diego to Raleigh, NC I have saved a bunch in fuel, partially because it costs less, partially because there is nowhere to go. Car is stored 4 months/year, no local mountian drives, no cruising to the beach. And no Tony or Seb.

Thats were we shine over everywhere else, everyone wants to be here even though they don't want to admit it....! We have it all; mountains (outdoor life), desert, beaches, great city life, real lakes (yea they have water at those), and perfect temps pretty much year round in S.Cal! Our Z's never have to go into winter storage here:-)

Saying "everyone wants to be here" is subjective. However, CA population growth is rising......
