Top five things that get Californians excited

It has been raining all week out here, and it reminded me of a top five list I read a long time ago. I don’t quite remember how it went so I’m gonna have to wing it a bit. Please bear with me…

So here it is, the top five things that make SoCal natives lose their tiny little minds

#1 Avocados are on sale!!!

5) Rain

4) Precipitation

3) Avocado prices

2) Moisture unexpectedly falling from the sky

1) Why is the ground suddenly wet?!?

What about the toast? You can’t have Avo’s without the toast 😉

      I hear what you’re saying, but bread prices are generally reasonable. Ergo; nothing to get excited about

  I bet you can drive in the rain, though…

#2 the only rainy picture I could find

Seriously, nobody born here knows how to drive in the rain in SoCal, or as we locals call it, Arrakis

I once worked with a customer between San Diego and LA. I landed at LAX and rented a car to drive to the customer. I WILL NEVER DRIVE IN LA AGAIN.

  Yeah, I avoid it whenever possible. Never between 3 and 7 PM if I can help it…

    that is a wise choice. I am always shocked by how many people think they can beat traffic.

        It is truly the best way, not traveling at all. I actually work from home on occasion!

  it isn’t that tough, but most folks in LA think 5mph is the optimal driving speed even when it is sprinkling…

    Simple tool… just use an umbrella that’s it. if quite hard and windy use a raincoat as well.

Californians don’t have much on their minds

I prefer at home when the weather is bad

Alex Ledante says:

January 19, 2019 at 3:52 am

if you have the option, I highly recommend it

Hopefully the rain will stop for you guys soon.

Alex Ledante says:

we could use the rain; Cali had a six year drought, four of which were record breakers…

Funny thing, drop an inch of snow instead of rain, and you get the same problem! It is all about the weather!

it is all about avoiding the weather if you live in my neck of the woods

  In my neck of the woods, it is about watching for convoy’s of large black SUV’s that shut down highways. Snow causes delays, politicians cause snarls!
