If, however, you get on state HW 299, and head out towards Weaverville, CA, kind of around Big Flat, you will come across a little coffeeshop called Straw House Coffee. It's about halfway between Redding and, like, Arcada or whatever on the coast. Great food, great coffee, great ambiance. I actually had an offer to work there and help the guy run the place, but never took him up on it, as I needed to make some money. But I can envision retiring there, and fishing on the Trinity river. My wife is from CA, I still listen to southern CA talk radio, so I'm still updated on what's going on there. It's kind of a mess. But it's SO pretty there. Likewise, however, I lived in the midwest for 5 years, and really couldn't wait to get out. Different strokes, different folks........
