Deer are a real pain. I was up in Scotland a few years back on the west coast driving on some remote road at 11PM at night. Hadn't seen another car for over an hour. All of a sudden I'm sailing past deer running along the wrong side of the road at 60mph.

Considering the damage I did to my sisters Honda by killing a badger one night I think hitting a deer might be bye bye for the Yaris.

Nice pics though. Some of California is very pretty. I'd love to explore more of it one day.

Wow; that must have been a trip! I agree, hitting a deer would be all bad.

Some of my beloved home state is definitely beautiful. The politics, gun laws, business regulations, cost of living, etc., not so much lol. If you get the chance, Yosemite and Sequoia are a must see.

Yes. I have been to Yosemite and up through the mountains over to Arizona. Back through the mammoth lakes area. I've also been to Monterey, LA and SF. I didn't get a chance to see the Seqoias when i was there sadly. I might in the future though if i go back.

I'd live in just about any other state except CA if i was a yank. Its expensive and very overcrowded. I liked Arizona a lot more.

You need to come back and check out Tahoe (:

Yes, California can be very yank/yuppie, but you have to understand that it's no different than New York and a few other busy states.

If you do plan on venturing back to the US, post something in advance. Maybe this forum can help you survive!

Yeah. I've been to New York. Upstate is pretty nice. So are Vermont and New Hampshire but NYC itself... Its an experience. There is nowhere like it but I don't know how people live there!

I've been to 13 states. Still got plenty to see. I do think at some point if i got laid off from work or changed jobs and had enough savings and no mortgage I might come over to the US for 6 months. Buy a cheap vehicle and spend 6 months on the road to see as much as possible.
