Just arrived in Hermosa Beach from Denver, road trip. Maps took me on circuitous route on 60 through Chino Hills. Wow, this place is lush green.

You guys must have got some rain lately! Post card day at the beach.

I managed to suffer through a boat shakedown and then a car show today. I hope tomorrow isn't as miserable in this here god forsaken hell hole of a state.

1st off I don't believe the FBI for anything. Wife use to work with then on task forces and would agree.

2nd

California​

Crime data for California are derived from reports voluntarily submitted to the FBI.
In 2021, the FBI estimated crime statistics for California are based on data received from of law enforcement agencies in the state that year.

This "Voluntarily" is how all the data is collected. Not very reliable in my opinion, but doesn't matter. Would always choose TN over CA.

Dang that negative tide.... is it a full moon.... +60 year olds tell me they waterskied as kids in Back Bay

Skied in the back bay every weekend. I went to Corona del Mar high school on East bluff drive. Two of my buddies and I would take our old Glaspar up there in the morning (usually foggy) and anchor it and walk to school. After school we would waterski for an hour or so. I am just old enough 63 this year.

Yup, we sure did Irvine Co. even had a launch ramp back there we used rather than having to launch at the Dunes.
Unfortunately they gated it off after a girl sustained a horrible prop strike. Naturally Irvine Co got sued, because the ramp the boat had launched from was on their property.

The only rather unnerving aspect of skiing back there was being able to stand up if you fell, although it made deep water starts rather easy, you just never knew what you might be standing on. There were years when you could do the same at Elsinore.

So cool.... here I was wondering if that was just a local tale.... glad you both [riverbottom] got to experience that. Now that I know its true I wonder if the Back Bay silt just filled up due to all the urban development over time. All our local waters from inland seek the ocean and through that corridor would make sense I guess. Comments?

Wife's uncle who didn't know me that well moved to Havasu from Cali at age 66 upon retirement, and called me a "Californio" at Thanksgiving that same year when I was about 29 years old . I'm like " dude, I'm from Phoenix and own a trailer in Havasu about 2 miles from your new dream home" . Went right over his head.
