Hey there Mountain Man, It's good to be riding along again. I always enjoy your California videos, especially if you can get some fishing in. (Last time on the Walker River along the 395. Big fires up that way as of the middle of July.) I'm surprised you don't have a dedicated fishing pole and small tackle box for your truck. That way you don't leave them behind, forget them of whatever. Get 'em on sale at the end of the season, stash a rig in the cab, and you're always prepared. This video I'm guessing, is from around fathers day. The low water in the Truckee River is emblematic of the whole west coast, and the rivers are getting lower every day. There is very little snow to melt. It's going to be a very tough fire season for sure. Worst drought in 1200 years or at least back to 1977/1978. Reno NV is attractive living for many in Cali. The real-estate has gone through the roof for all the standard reasons but also because of all the tech giants buying up both commercial and residential properties. It's easy to commute by air or car to Silicon Valley and if you're actually working in NV for the big tech firms (via tele-commuting, zoom, etc), taxes, cost of living and quality of life are way better than the deteriorating Commie-formula. The migration out of Cali is being led by the big tech firms, but it's on the down-low. They want to keep it hush -hush so as not to create a run on NV properties. Ha, that's already happened over the past decade with the housing bust of 2008, the low interest rates from the Fed and lack of housing in CA. You will see a building boom in Reno with residential towers and office space being built by individual companies like Apple, Google, etc. Company tower towns to house company employees. It was nice to see the black soil and green fields of Salinas. The water crisis in Cali will have a big impact on the whole agriculture industry out here. Many of the main reservoirs for the state water system are just about dried up. It will impact crop production and thus prices. Inflation has been hidden and under reported for years but the drought will be blamed for the sudden and large price increases in fresh, frozen and canned food we are all going to see over the next few years. Plant a garden at home and grow your own, it will save you some cash so you can buy another fishing pole. Ha! Stay well good buddy and we'll see 'ya on the next one. ...

You can also watch John Candy's last film, Wagons East, it has something about the Donner Party in it. If you do every time you cross Donner Pass you will think of a line about human nature. The only people who did resort to cannibalism were the group who left the rest at Truckee Lake, renamed Donner Lake, to hike to Bear Valley to get help. This group of 17 men, women, and children wound up being called the party of Forlom Hope. The ones who stayed at Donner Lake did not resort to cannibalism. Sad thing, they could not find their frozen cows till some of the snow melted, as it did the ones who stayed at Truckee Lake were able to start eating some of the meat. Also no one knew how to ice fish, and Truckee Lake was full of Fish.

Why no videos of Sacramento or Woodland? I know not much to look at on the freeway, but I wanted to see you maneuver the traffic. At least you can get a shot going over the bridges with the river below it. We had a 10 acre fire here today, with mandatory evacuations. My husband was helping neighbors while I was wetting the roof and putting cats in cages. One cat got out and hid under the bed. That was a waste of time, luckily the evacuation was lifted before I had to pull him out. Last year's evacuation went better, we had an hour to prepare. What can you do in 10 minutes...not much.

My mother was raised in San Jose, where some of the Donner Party settled after their hellish journey. I asked her once if she knew any of them, and she said "oh yes, we were aware that they were there and who they were." She knew one of the families in SJ, and their daughter attended Mom's same school. They had a nodding acquaintance but were not friends. So, not the entire Donner Party died; some did survive and did rather well in their new California home in ensuing years. Were they the ones who survived on the flesh of friends? No one asked. One didn't, in those days. It was considered to shocking to discuss, and they were not indicted by law, I don't believe. It would have been Desecration of a Corpse, but the then-small community of San Jose simply never spoke of it.

Yup!! The Donner party got there because the first route they were gonna take was too long and they requested a shorter route over the pass. All they had to do was keep going a little further and they would have been home. But soon they ran out of food, then began eating the horses and dogs, but the storm lasted so long they had to finally resort to eating their own that had died from the cold!! Can you imagine trying to pick up your life after that??

A “National” fishing license.., just like all of our driver and pilot licenses... is something that should be made available to everyone in the country. I don’t enjoy having to purchase a fishing license for each and every state that I travel to. Fishing, while traveling quickly becomes cost prohibited. BTW, how was the fishing there on the Walker River just above Bishop, Ca?
@TheUserid823 жыл бұрын
The western states can learn a lot from countries like India and Israel as they have figured out how to take advantage of all the rain the falls in an area using simple ditches and dirt berms to stop the water from running right into the creeks when it rains so it has time to soak in to recharge the ground water and increase the output of the springs that slowly feed the creeks and rivers over months rather then floods every rain. It is not even a labor or cost issue as prison work gangs can do the work cheaply and be happy to not be inside the prison fence for a day. If they go into another lockdown a very easy solution for fastfood and other food places to deal with walk up customers is to simply look at what banks with the glass divider and use the simple 2 door airlock pass thru windows. A simple electromagnet door catch on the customer door would let the person inside have full control on when that door opens.
