    Florida’s beaches, particularly along the southeast and southwest coastlines, blow away California’s beaches. The water is a hell of a lot clearer and warmer too. And the big game fishing is way better. Same goes for the air quality. No comparison. Except for surfing. Massive edge to Cali on that front. Waves matter.

    Driving the coastlines is a different story. California has a lot more natural beauty as a state, and the Mediterranean climate is a lot more comfortable overall than the sub tropical climate in Florida, but only a dumbass would limit their experiences to one or the other. Drive a convertible along the Florida Keys Highway and get passed out drunk in Key West with a couple strippers. Unless you’re HondoFS, you’ll have a blast. He’d wake up with his asshole on fire, so maybe he’d have an excuse. Do the same (over a couple days) from Crescent City to Mission Beach along PCH and you’ll also have a blast, unless again, you’re HondoFS.

    CA sucks in a lot of ways right now. But if you want nice weather and beaches where the hell else are you gonna go? There's always going to be a high number of smart, rich folks that want to live there. California is for winners until its not.



    Gulf sure as fuck nicer than the freezing cold Pacific.

    #noshrinkage
    lmao @ anything north of Matagorda
    But the MAGAs said Galveston was the Hawaii of Texas!?!?
    Yakima is the Palm Springs of Washington though
    Both places suck so that checks out.
    You’re right, but MOTHER FUCKING WATCH IT!
    At least Yakima produces hops and wine. Palm Springs is definitely worse.

    You live in paradise and don't have to work. Can't figure out why you're such a salty bastard most of the time.
    Tourist traffic cuts into the time I can spend doing squats overlooking the ocean with a former fitness trainer who looks like Tauriel and discussing which is better for a Christmas trip, Kaanapali or Hanalei Bay

    And how was your morning?

    Ok things we can agree on. I fucking hate tourist traffic on PCH. We do our Hawaii trips in Summer though since Winters here are nice and we can gtfo during peak tourist season.

    We usually do Hawaii in the summer also, but lately we've been tossing around the idea of flying into Milan this June and doing a monthlong tour around the Alps. However, our oldest has said that he doesn't really want to be traveling for that long a time, so we're now thinking about cutting the summer trip in half. That affords the opportunity to use the saved travel money on a quick trip to Maui over New Years, and Alaska just sent us some enticing offers that we're considering. Problem is that this close to the holidays the vacation rental market has almost nothing available. Tauriel has already booked Hanalei Bay

    I'd send the oldest to summer camp as his other option and keep my month of travel but Hawaii for new years isn't a bad compromise.

    He'll be 21 this summer so he'd actually have the option of staying home and housesitting like he did last June when we went to Boston, but we prefer to give them the opportunity to travel and see the way other people do things. He also doesn't like Hawaii, so he'd probably stay home and it'd just be the four of us

    Yeah, I remember my hanging out in icky tourist places phase. Basically all of Maui.

    Go to Hawaii in the summer. That really is the best time to leave the west coast for some decent weather.

    Florida’s beaches, particularly along the southeast and southwest coastlines, blow away California’s beaches. The water is a hell of a lot clearer and warmer too. And the big game fishing is way better. Same goes for the air quality. No comparison. Except for surfing. Massive edge to Cali on that front. Waves matter.

    Driving the coastlines is a different story. California has a lot more natural beauty as a state, and the Mediterranean climate is a lot more comfortable overall than the sub tropical climate in Florida, but only a dumbass would limit their experiences to one or the other. Drive a convertible along the Florida Keys Highway and get passed out drunk in Key West with a couple strippers. Unless you’re HondoFS, you’ll have a blast. He’d wake up with his asshole on fire, so maybe he’d have an excuse. Do the same (over a couple days) from Crescent City to Mission Beach along PCH and you’ll also have a blast, unless again, you’re HondoFS.

    The board of abundance is slipping this morning. Christ.

    FWIW as someone who lives between PCH and the ocean, I don't need A/C in the summer and the most I need in the winter is a sweatshirt

    climate matters
    You live in paradise and don't have to work. Can't figure out why you're such a salty bastard most of the time.
    Tourist traffic cuts into the time I can spend doing squats overlooking the ocean with a former fitness trainer who looks like Tauriel and discussing which is better for a Christmas trip, Kaanapali or Hanalei Bay

    And how was your morning?

    Ok things we can agree on. I fucking hate tourist traffic on PCH. We do our Hawaii trips in Summer though since Winters here are nice and we can gtfo during peak tourist season.
    We usually do Hawaii in the summer also, but lately we've been tossing around the idea of flying into Milan this June and doing a monthlong tour around the Alps. However, our oldest has said that he doesn't really want to be traveling for that long a time, so we're now thinking about cutting the summer trip in half. That affords the opportunity to use the saved travel money on a quick trip to Maui over New Years, and Alaska just sent us some enticing offers that we're considering. Problem is that this close to the holidays the vacation rental market has almost nothing available. Tauriel has already booked Hanalei Bay
    From the beach in SW Costa Rica I say, FUCK ALL YOU LOOSERS!

    College beach volleyball starts in January. I'll mosey on up there then. (Florida)

    On a side note, I'm amazed this communication technology actually works from here.
    Just like the guy promised!
