It may not be Malibu, but is not a ********.


It isn't even Arvin.

Taft, like Bakersfield, is hell on earth on a still day. There are
enough airborne volatiles that you can hardly breath. Well, normal
humans find it hard to tolerate. I don't think the locals

even
notice.
They do contract nasty diseases in numbers that look a lot like Love

canal,
however.

The more you write the more I know you are familiar with the area. I used
to live in Orange county, California so I've been over the hill and up I-5
many times over the years. As you accurately noted the area immediately
after you leave the mountains and hit the valley floor is one unattractive
area. It's dry, smoggy, hot, lacks green vegetation, and as you might
expect it's never been a place many people wanted to spend time in.
Despite what Gunner says it's not a nice place. On the other hand, there
are people who think Blythe is nice.

Have either of you taken 33 through Taft to Ojai? Nice run on a
motorcycle, same road Jimmy Dean died on in his Porche Speedster.

Even the Fast Food sucks, hamburgers like shoe leather and prices are
inflated. Do not order a milk shake or malt of any flavor! Caveat: I
haven't been through 166?/33 in a decade or so.
