However, the SoCal location kind of negates that last line. Is it physically at all possible to improve the climate there?

Achewood is in NoCal.

Just remember, Bakersfield is the unwanted red-headed step-child of both No & SoCal and thus, where the line is drawn.

Bakersfield is definitely in So Cal.

Have you ever heard the term "ecological footprint"? That is the square footage of earthly resources that are needed for one person's existence. Oil companies have somewhat co-opted that term for the "carbon footprint".

Is it anything like this?

I hope I never have to refer to a scone in spoken conversation.

As a transplanted Angelino, I would personally define Bakersfield as "Central California".

Of course, in the three years I've lived in So. Cal, I've never been farther north than Santa Barbara or south of Anaheim. I am sorta tied to my work and... when I get extended time off, I visit my family back East, generally.

I could basically just hang out in the southern and central parts of the San Fernando Valley (Van Nuys, Sherman Oaks, North Hollywood, Studio City) and Hollywood/West Hollywood and be completely happy.

Shit! OK, but you damn well better pay to get the teeth fixed on Clovis and Manteca.

Gotta love a city named "Lard".  There's a way to cripple a kid's self esteem.

I am originally from LA. I have no idea what I consider Bakersfield, other than a good place for some country music to come out of.

ALSO: Shut your yapper, transplant! Don't make me send Modesto, Tracy and Tehachapi down there to rough you up.

I dated a girl from Modesto. My buddy lives in Stockton. Is it true that at one point you weren't allowed to live in Lodi unless someone who already lived there vouched for your character? That sounds... illegal.

I dunno.  Lodi's a black hole.  Once you've gone there, you never get out.

I've heard the landcrab is good?


Asherdan, I never would have picked you for the rodeo type. Thankyou for reminding me again why such activities are a Bad Idea.

I don't know if Asherdan is really a reformed rodeo dude or if he's just pullin' my latigo, but I can'd him regardless for "mean old dude with crap on his ass."
