Having sort of lived in such an area, in a loose way, for over a decade... #1.

Really isn't as easy as it might look.
@DeWayfarer It actually doesn’t look that easy. But then heights make me nervous.
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@bijouxbroussard not the heights that is the problem. It's the flash flooding. Mountainous areas usually are full of such dangers.

@DeWayfarer But it goes together. I used to live in Pacifica, where the mudslides contributed to erosion and homes up on those hills were especially vulnerable.

@bijouxbroussard I know where Pacifica is !

Nothing there compares to the mountains. That image is very deceiving.

There was a six foot high culvert once there surrounded by solid concrete. It was just simply washed away, concrete and all! I could almost stand upright in it. I'm 6'2"
@DeWayfarer Okay, [b]cliffs[/b], then. I’m not looking for an [b]argument[/b]. In Pacifica the combination of mudslides and height meant erosion of the [b]cliffs[/b] on which many Bay view buildings were lost.

@bijouxbroussard I fell off the cliffs in La Jolla in my younger years. I exactly know where you are talking about.
@DeWayfarer La Jolla’s in San Diego.

@bijouxbroussard so is Pacifica Beach!
@DeWayfarer No, Pacifica is on the peninsula, in the Bay Area. San Mateo County. I lived there for about three years.

@bijouxbroussard then there's two Pacifica beaches! It's just South of the city of San Diego. I went to high school my senior year in San Diego county.
@DeWayfarer I’m not familiar with San Diego so I looked it up. Pacifica Beach is a neighborhood there. But the city of Pacifica is up here.
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@bijouxbroussard oh ! City of Pacifica. When you just said Pacifica I thought you meant the beach.

There are cliffs there that have fallen.
@DeWayfarer But I said Pacifica.
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@bijouxbroussard locals there call it Pacifica. Please bare in mind that was in 1977. Not even swami's Beach was officially called that then.
@DeWayfarer But the [b]city[/b] is called Pacifica. I said what I meant.
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@bijouxbroussard I know you said what you meant. Yet I didn't see "city" in that.
