Funny, how so much can change and yet things basically look the same. I took a little jaunt across the country and in less than a week I managed to change my mind about nearly everything. I was ready to pack my bags and move to the cold. In all honestly, I don't even think I knew what cold felt like. Well, I learned quickly, and it didn't take long to make me realize I had taken California and all she stands for in my life for granted. I need sunshine the way most people need food.
So I came home, back to this place I have spent most of my teenage and adult life trying to escape and yet again I got to see it with new eyes. This is my home and I need to fully experience everything she has to offer before I pick up and leave. So I think I will start working on a Hometown Bucket List! The goal is to give me something to focus on and let me see a different side of good Ol' Redding. I'm taking suggestions if anyone wants to tell me restaurants to try, trails to hike, places to go, etc. Hopefully, I will have at least most of the list done by the end of the week. I will post what I have finished by this weekend. Thanks for your help in advance!
