Administrators Jim_Alaska Posted October 18, 2018 Administrators Share Posted October 18, 2018 I am always amazed that people refer to places like Oakland as, "Northern California". I do know that it is always called Northern California because it is north of an imaginary central line. But I live in the real Northern California, about forty miles from a small place called Yreka. Yreka is about 20 miles from the Oregon border. Population 7,500. I live very rural, or even isolated. My nearest neighbor is five miles away. Temperatures here at this time of year drop into the low thirties at night and run about sixty to seventy in the day, if it is sunny.

Members *Light* Posted October 18, 2018 Members Share Posted October 18, 2018 I don't know . . . everyone here refers to Oakland as Northern California -- so I refer to my place of residence as located in Northern California as to not CONFUSE others. If I tell someone out of state that I DON'T live in Northern California, but rather I live in Oakland . . . it will only cause them confusion -- and I'm not about that.

Administrators Jim_Alaska Posted October 18, 2018 Administrators Share Posted October 18, 2018 Yes, I understand the difference Danny. Even SF is considered Northern California. I was just stating a pet peeve. After all, Oakland is north of Southern California. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rosie Posted October 18, 2018 Members Share Posted October 18, 2018 Jim I'd live in the middle of 40 acres if I could. Is your 72* warm or cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members *Light* Posted October 18, 2018 Members Share Posted October 18, 2018 72 is perfect weather to me, and there isn't a cloud to be seen. I would say it's t-shirt weather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Jim_Alaska Posted October 18, 2018 Administrators Share Posted October 18, 2018 72 here is nice Rosie. There is quite a difference in how it feels between the sunshine and the shade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rosie Posted October 19, 2018 Members Share Posted October 19, 2018 Do you have humidity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Jim_Alaska Posted October 19, 2018 Administrators Share Posted October 19, 2018 We don't have much humidity to speak of Rosie. That's because we are inland and there is high desert all around. The valley we live in is very lush and green because it contains a large river and winters have a lot of rain. I have lived on both coasts in Florida and the humidity there is very high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Rosie Posted October 20, 2018 Members Share Posted October 20, 2018 Yes Jim, the humidity is still high even toward the end of October its still high.. it wounds like you live in a great location Omega, is this your home? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members *Light* Posted October 20, 2018 Members Share Posted October 20, 2018 That is not my home. My place is a modest cottage that's similar in style to that -- only not as big as that house (about 1/4 a block from that house). That house has three floors and is occupied by at least 12 people who are all tenants renting the place out. It looks nice on the outside but I've seen the inside and it's a mess, and some exterior parts of the house on the backside are dilapidated because the Landlord does not keep up with its much needed renovating. I may live in a modest cottage . . . but from being once homeless, it is a step up. I feel like I'm living in paradise! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rosie Posted October 20, 2018 Members Share Posted October 20, 2018 what a shame that you were homeless, was this your choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members *Light* Posted October 21, 2018 Members Share Posted October 21, 2018 I had did a testimony about this a while back. I was a very evil man back in the days and made some poor life choices as a young man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
