    I'm not going to hi-jacked this thread, BUT, this is what today's society is. No one wants to admit what distinguishes right and wrong. I myself was in that state of mind and grew out if it. It's something not to brag about cause it displays ones immaturity.

    Not to mention the beaches are littered with dirty diapers and broken beer bottles.

    Yreka and also Weed are both nice little towns. I have a lot of friends who moved from that area to go to college in Arcata and they all like Arcata more, but again, less trucking on 101 than 5.

    Kinda off topic but a little bit south of there, in between Redding and Dunsmuir, is one of my favorite spots along I-5, Lakehead. It's right in the mountains, by Lake Shasta, you can park and go for a hike to the lake.

    Ashland, Medford, and Grants Pass are all perfect for a trucker. Most of the towns on the Oregon Coast would work very well too.

    LA county beaches are ghetto. It's not like what you see on Baywatch. I actually feel sorry for the unsuspecting tourists. :D

    Ironic... To get a job in some American cities one must learn Spanish... Not bashing anyone but that just seems backwards to me. {shrug}
