[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3073681, member: 5412"] You have a bit of conundrum then. Back in the day, the company I worked for shut down the sister company in Orange County, LA. Folks that wanted to follow the move came out here and were amazed at the housing prices. They sold a 850 sq ft old bungalow for close to a half million dollars and found they could buy a 2000 sq ft house on the golf course in Ponca with change left over to buy a fancy car. After a few years, the families of the workers decided this was like living in the gobi desert, and moved back to Ca. It took them two to three hours from Riverside to shop in LA because of the traffic. It takes less time to get to Tulsa or OKC for the same shopping in the same stores. They couldn't get used to the non-urban development on the road between there and here, called it boring. Well, see ya later was the response I heard. It's a different world out here. People that have never met wave at each other when passing in cars, we actually stop and talk to others that we don't know, etc. Spending my time in commiefornika, that didn't happen much unless they recognized an okie slang and were a transplant.
