No I never did. Sure is pretty though. I remember poison oak and ivy. My mother made us bathe in Oxydol laundry soap and bleach. Surprised I was ever able to have children!

You know it's good you have some property because one day maybe you could retire there. Property in California is like gold.
My parents bought a house with a huge backyard and double lot in 1969 in Pasadena for $25g and then in '74, my ex brother in law bought it from them for about $40g and turned around and sold it for $250g! It was on Mentor street near the downtown area. My mother never got over that as long as she lived.
