@Muhammad Salafi That's a long story: duckduckgo.com/?q=confederate+flag+meaning&t=ffnt&ia=web Until I'd looked it up just now, I never knew there were different designs to the flag, I only knew of the orange flag with the blue cross and stars. As you'll see from reading up on it, there are many different meanings to the flag, depending on who's perspective you're looking at it from.

I live in Northern California, and we are about 2 hours away from where it looks like this. We are surrounded by fields of agriculture with the Sierra Nevada’s off in the distance on one side, and the Coastal Range on the other. You should show people the Northern California coastline. Breathtaking. Maybe the northern Redwoods, too.

I would honestly say that much of CA is similar to the cities in this video. Everyone thinks about the coast and big cities along the ocean however CA is really long and it’s somewhat wide too so once you go in towards land more away from the ocean, there are many national forests and lots of agriculture so you have many towns like the ones in this video. CA has more national parks than any other state and we by far have the most agriculture in the country so there is a lot of parts of CA that people aren’t used to seeing on tv and in the news all the time.

Uh no Sir, that's TEXAS you're talking about. My growing up was a mile from the Beach..walked there every day growing up.. Like trees, (like you seem to ) - drive north 200 miles and find yourself in "The Big Thicket", trees you can't see the top of. Tired of being "in the shade" under all those trees, drive west a couple hrs and look at The Hill Country. This isn't mountains. but it's rough hills (great climbing) smaller trees and brush country, lots of streams and rivers through here. OK, if you wear out your welcome here, drive north to the plains...grasslands as far as you can imagine - few trees and waist high grasses - much wildlife here too.. Turn left again (West) and you'll soon be in The Davis Mountains. This isn't the Rockies, but these are actual mountains. You had better be a true mountaineer to walk or climb around here very much. When you get as far West as you can go "in Texas" you're in El Paso. On the north city limits of El Paso you'll find White Sands Desert. Like sand, there's a lot here - looks more like sugar or salt. I had basic training in the Army here. Drill Sergeants liked to have us crawl through this sand with a 100 lb rucksak on our back. . much fun! If you're looking for diversity - TEXAS is the place to find it. Cali is ok I guess, but I kinda wonder why we have so many people leaving there lately, many of them come here.TEXAS HAS GOT IT ALL !!

I grew up in Huntington Beach, but in the mid 70s my parents split and my mom remarried and moved to the "Little Town of Washington." It really is a quirky Gem of a place. All three of my sisters went to school in the K-8 one room school house there. The population has a little bit of everyone. The river is gorgeous, too. It's real quirky in winter when the weather shuts down the turn off from HWY 20. There are some even smaller little hamlets up the logging roads...Graniteville for example, enroute to Bowman's reservoir is on 12 people or so. If you want to slide off the grid in CA, start at the little town of Washington. And yes, there is still gold in the rivers too.

You, have however visualised this on your videos and I appreciate your content. The homeless situation in LA really took me to depth of how could this be specially in a county such as America.

In 2021, I did a travel nurse assignment in the North Bay Area.

Aside from Sonoma State Park (and the drive along the Russian River to get out there), up in the Sierra Nevadas is my favorite part of CA.

I was hiking outside Nevada City on the South Yuba River, came across a long covered bridge. Found out there are 8 covered bridges, all in northern CA.

Washington CA. Is a quaint little town, years ago we rode our horses from Skillman horse camp down through town to the river. Our own little parade, we were offered a beer from locals as we rode by.
