Reply to comment by non-member in Ranting about house prices by AllMightoh

I had only visited California a handful of times before moving to the west coast. I don't remember it being nearly as dry as it is now...it was a bit depressing when I visited for the first time in a while.

When I was a kid it rained regularly in San Diego. We had toads in our yard during the monsoon season, there were endless groves of avocado and citrus as far as the eye could see, and it was easy to find natural springs and creeks in the hills while out hiking. The highways all has beautiful green plants, much of it flowering all summer.

Not any more… Makes me sad to think about what we’ve lost in just a few decades.
