California

[Box Ox]

Yeah most coastal mountains don't see this type of weather and don't have the CHP controlling the roads. That's why you get these people stuck on these roads.

So what you are saying is there is a lack of common sense there?

If they were Minnesotans.

 

[MAKAVELI]

If they were Minnesotans.

If Minnesota had California weather, they'd be just as ignorant.

That isn't saying much for Ca.

 

[rod]

Common sense and lack of experience. A lot of people who live along the coast especially urban areas never even seen snow, much less driven in it

No excuse. Do these people not know that snow and ice are slippery? Do they live under a rock. We don't have Death Valley weather here but when we visited it (loved it even though the weather was HOT) we knew enough to bring extra water and proper attire--not flip flops and wife beaters.

I can't wear my chest waders to surf fish in the Pacific Ocean because they cause cancer in California . At least that is what the tag said when I bought them. The same with my solo bonfire campfire stove. Cancer in California

I have always wondered why Massachusetts needs the same vehicle emissions requirements as California ?
Honestly all winds in CA blow inland while MA winds blow out to sea.

The whales

The whales

It's that time of the year again.
Whales just shutdown the Cape Cod Canal to all ship traffic while they were moving thru.
Soon they will be in my neighborhood and all the tourists will be looking to take pictures of them.
I still can't put a lobster trap into the water until May 16th, maybe a little earlier if the powers to be decide that they have moved on.

 

[Babagounj]

Of course, I'll put my vessel in the water before May 1st.
So I can ride around and remove any traps left over from last year.
Cheap way to get newer traps for me.

The whales

That's it !!!! that is what is killing the whales in New Jersey .Not the mapping of the ocean floor for the governments waste of money wind farms.

For many people in California, (and a very large portion of this planet) the notion of snow or ice on a road is in the same realm as a paranormal event. You may as well tell them how to prepare if they happen to wander into a haunted house.

we knew enough to bring extra water and proper attire--not flip flops and wife beaters.

That's because you were a tourist who had the resources and time to prepare for and research what you were going well out of your way to visit.

Death Valley didn't come to visit you in your native area of four seasons. You visited Death Valley. And as the ominous name implies, it is a place where people can very easily die.

There is no reason to pat yerself on the back for being smart enough to properly prepare yerself to go out of yer way to visit a place or environment with "death" in it's name.

If anything, to purposely and intentionally visit a place like that sounds about as smart as urinating on an electric fence.

Stop that common sense talk!

Stop that common sense talk!

I am from California. According to popular opinion, I do not have any of what you write of to spare or dispense.

I also do not have an ice scraper, a snow shovel, or studded tires.

However, I am quick with a knife; and skilled at spotting and evading wandering liberals, and other ne'er-do-wells.

Death Valley is beautiful. You should climb out of your parents basement and see what is out there in this world.

I am far more well-traveled than most people.

Also, basements are very uncommon here in California. About as common as air conditioning units in Alaska.

I encourage and welcome you to visit California and Death Valley as often as possible.

No basements in Az either.

 

[Mutineer]

No basements in Az either.

My experiences and impressions of Az have been mixed.

It's where white people move so they can look like beef jerky or a Moroccan hand-bag.

Southwestern decor is very repetitive. Zia symbols, Kokopelli caricatures, pastels, cow skulls, cowboy hats, and bolo-ties induce nauseum in me.

Phoenix is awful. Prescott is fantastic. One of my most favorite people in the world is from Tucson.

I hear javelinas are quite a nuisance, and are abundant and fun to hunt.
