@bhatjc Do you like living in California? I saw a people on here complaining about that state on here for some reason. about solar panels?

@Shine New state law. All newer homes have to have solar panels. Already have them so. So i'm grandfathered in. The state is some what in a crapper. But hell that is always CA
