Why is Tampa such a dirty city?
I went on vacation there and it was tge vacation from hell! Me and family went to Sarasota, Celebration, Orlando, Tallahassee, Estero and Gainesville and all those cities were either super clean or if they had bad areas they were limited to small parts of the city, not everywhere like dump Tampa. Where are the palm trees in Tampa? Why are so many strip clubs in Tampa? Why is everything old and ugly in Tampa when Tallahassee and Gainesville are older but their old is charming and historic? Orlando is nice with manicured lawns, buildings look neat and colorful, same with Estero. Why is Tampa the armpit of Florida? Btw we stayed in Tampa longer than those other places.
What strikes first time visitors as special or unusual when they arrive in Riverside, CA?
The historic downtown area would probably be at the top of the list for first-time visitors. The most famous would be the Mission Inn with its eclectic multi-period architectural features, but also churches, museums, former citrus packing house, and very interesting residential areas winding up and around Mt Rubidoux and other surrounding neighborhood areas. Also the historically preserved Victoria Avenue with its impeccably cared-for trees, shrubbery and flowers, lined with citrus orchards and very intriguing homes and properties. If you are visiting in spring you cannot miss the glorious aroma of the orange blossoms wafting across the entire city; if you are visiting between the day after Thanksgiving through the New Year you will definitely want to enjoy the Festival of Lights in the downtown area including strolling the pedestrian Mall with your friends and family.

What is something gone from Sacramento, CA that you miss the most?
I could write about an iconic building, Alhambra Theater, that was torn down and replaced by a Safeway. I could write about some of the beloved people from the past, but that would probably be one of my teachers from elementary school, or possibly the way it’s grown up and there are no longer fields as far as the eye can see with no buildings, fences, any type of human made contrivance. I am not going to tell you about these, though they are all things I miss. It’s something else.I miss the days where all the kids on my street would go outside and play without a thought of some pervert or maniac luring one of us away. I miss climbing into the tree in my front yard and reading a book for hours and watching everything that happened without worry. In the summer I, along with the kids on the street would be booted out of the house by our mothers and told to go play. We did. We built forts in the fields I mentioned and played cowboys and, oops politically appropriate, Indigenous Natives, (though we didn’t say that and no one took offense back then, even my full blooded Choctaw grandparents). We played all morning and ran home for lunch only to return and pick up the game where we left off. Then we played until we were called into dinner, went out again after and played until dark on those hot summer nights. I miss the freedom from worry, I and my friends took for granted back then. I wish to go back to this gentler time in Sacramento.
