same here, I am SO ready to leave SoCal for good.
Finding GAINFUL employment is the key.
If there are any FreeStaters out there that have suggestions... I'm all ears.
I can build 3D geometry (models) for 3D printing. At the moment I'm doing prototyping for movie stuff.
When the next dry spell happens, I AM OUT OF HERE. Not sure where to, but that's less important.
