Quote from: J E B Stuart on May 28, 2026, 10:48:29 AMI've been there a number of times. The pitiful thing about the west coast becoming a shithole rookery is that there is such an incredible abundance of spectacular beauty there.

Amen.

That is what I have heard from everybody who has been there.

Amen.
