Yes we do and I love it! The infrastructure is incredible, the deed restrictions are great, and the large majority of people are awesome! If you want all the unrest, high stress, in your face opinions, leave the bubble. Take a few minutes and look or drive around and take in what we have. A safe, beautiful, clean, and friendly place to live!!

It irks me to hear people flippantly use "entitlement" for anyone. I started working when I was 14 years old and didn't stop until retirement. Many difficult times, but stuck with it the best that I could. For what little bit that I do have - I have worked very hard & have earned it.

Translation: "Many don't agree with my infallible point of view and hence are completely out of touch and locked in to their deeply flawed preconceived notions."

Yeah, I'd say there's a bubble there somewhere.

I thought there would be multiple comments on how cool the photo was. I'm not a photographer per se, but would love to know how the photo was shot.
