[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] MyNameIsCharlie They have very beautiful beaches up thataway...[/quote] I have not been to one So-Cal beach I liked. From Redondo to Huntington, Seal, Ocean Side, and Long Beach. I left each of them sort of disgusted. The Water off California is not clean, it is not bright and blue. It's not Palm Trees and Surfers, well maybe Surfers. The water off our Coast is disgusting. Even more so during a Red Tide. Trash everywhere, ass hats on the Beach, etc... Maybe I just got spoiled by the Beaches on Maui. Maybe I got spoiled by the Beaches on the Colorado between Havasu and Parker. But I cannot stand the water off California. It's cold, it's dangerous, it's dirty. As for the OC, I like Orange and that's about it. [Edited on 01.08.2013 12:01 AM PST]
