More California

I love you, California, you're the greatest state of all. I love you in the winter, summer, spring and in the fall.
I love your fertile valleys; your dear mountains I adore. I love your grand old ocean and I love her rugged shore.

“California’s been good to me. Hope it don’t fall into the sea.” …..Tom Petty
