Hello from Northwest Iowa. I hope you enjoy your time here.
I lived in Orange and Ventura Counties for a total of 20 years. Where do you live?

It has changed so much in the last 20 years since when I first got here. Too many people who are greedy and rude.....ready to be in the middle of nowhere with some animals, my garden, and my orchard. A little peace of heaven! Colorado is nice but I am hoping to be slightly warmer than that in the winter.

Hello and welcome from S.W. Oregon, you've come to a good site, a lot of excellent back to the soil knowledge to choose from.
Thank you.
Back in the 90's i lived in Riverside then in Santa Clarita. I hated it! Took a job in West Virginia just to get out of la. Sadly, a few yrs later i ended up in the bay area, san mateo, for a couple more yrs. Couldn't wait to get out of ca for good.
I can't imagine how bad things are there now... just what i've read. I'm just happy i'm not there! Hopefully you'll find a good place to live. We have a couple members who have left socal in the last few years. They might have some tips for you.

Welcome from Texas!!
Welcome aboard.
Welcome from Florida.
There's still plenty or rural land here in the northern part of the state. Warm, too.
I spent 4 days in San Diego in 2019 for my Army infantry division reunion. Never got very far away from the hotel.
