People carrying guns when they're not hunting still kinda freaks me out. I had my first experience with an open carry Newark DE... Standing in line with friends to get food when I turn around there's a guy behind us in the line with a machine gun around his neck and a gun on his hip. My heart sunk for a second.

When I'm all camoed out I will open carry.

I've quit carring a rifle in my window gun rack in my truck. Had stopped by Walmart after shooting a new ar build. I couldn't believe people's reactions.

Heck we carried rifles to school in our trucks.

Yeah I don’t see any reason to open carry, it makes people uncomfortable and there’s no reason anyone needs to know I have a gun on me. Plus most of the time I think people just look like douche bags doing it. Not even in Georgia have I run across somebody carrying a long rifle out and about lol.

Open carrying in a holster on your hip doesn't really bother me. I find it a little scary and intimidating when someone is walking around in a group of people carrying a machine gun.

Probably, I've only been to LAX, never anywhere else in the State.
Do you know much about California? Like...beyond the fact that we have hollyweird and deserts?

In the winter, I can go snowboarding in the morning, take a mountain bike ride in the middle of the day, and go swimming in the ocean in the evening.

All in the same day, all appropriate temperatures for each activity.

Doesn't really seem like there's much advantage to having a pool in California if you can only use it in the spring and fall.
I guess it depends on the situation.
I live in the SFV (Los Angeles County), Cali.
I don't swim in other pools so I wouldn't know how hot the water
gets but I would guess luke warm, warm to hot maybe not for some?

My pool is painted white so it reflects light and the front 1/3 of the pool is
shaded by a fairly large tree that is situated 15' from the front of the pool and
the thick leafy branches stretch out to cover the front 1/3 and the entire pool deck in front of the pool.

2 big stairs run the entire width of the front of the pool also so
you can kick it on the first stair with the water up to your chest. Because of the white
paint and good amount of shade in the pool the pool stays rather chilly always for the
past 20 years I've and others have used it. Some of my friends say the water is too chilly during
the summer months so they have to swim around a bit for a few minutes to get used to it firstly.

This is probably a rare situation to have a pool that is partly shaded so I guess I lucked
out when I moved in.

For the winter jumping in the pool is a sure way to wake up fast and very refreshing jumping in when
morning comes. In short, the pool is awesome all year round. May be what you said for most with a pool?
I would think so.

One of my sis's lives in Toluca Lake here in the SFV although Iv'e never swam in it, during
the winter months they (her and her husband) heat up large pool (there is a pool heater for the pool)
and continuous steam comes up out of the entire surface of the water. Apparently they and others love to use
the pool during winter. I've never asked her about the water temp during summer months.
