Wow!

Ahh, sweet California breeze, how I do miss thee.

I thought I would just take time to help everyone appreciate California's perfection.

Not only is it so diverse, with it's many different climates and gorgeous landscapes, it is, as Fountain Valley has coined, "A Nice Place to Live."

Who can argue that it isn't? With it's vast, majestic ocean, to the immense mountain ranges, to it's sultry deserts, to it's plush green valleys. California is, by far, the most amazing place in the country.

Having been so blessed as to live so close to the beach, I have never once taken this for granted, and neither should you. Where else can you go to the beach all year round, never have to wear more than a light sweatshirt, and where flip flops are a way of life? Don't ever take it for granted. Someday you might find yourself waking up in a freezing cold tundra or a inescapable sauna (utah.......) and think, "Man, I should have enjoyed California while I had the chance."

My favorite past time has been going to the beach. I loved just watching the waves crash, the feeling of the sand between your toes, basking in the warm sunshine. These are the things I miss, as well as being able to ride my bike along the shore, being with 10 minutes of every major Friday night activity. But the thing I miss the most? Driving down PCH. Those memories will forever be with me and I don't think I can ever let go. So, thank you for making that so special for me, and helping me to associate nothing but happiness with our beautiful coast...I love OC...
