      Nice! My wife and I recently lived in San Diego for about 7 months (Normal Heights). We loved all of the choices for things to do, but sooo many people was a lot to handle. La Jolla, Fiesta Island, and Sunset Cliffs were our favorite locations!

    I lived on 12th Ave and Hal Greer in the Eighties as a kid. We left in '89 much to my dismay. Since growing up in the Nineties, I have lived coast to coast in the States, Western Europe and Central America - from the tropical rainforest to Wall Street. I can tell you there is not one place I know of that has a more enchanting combination of qualities. Recently I took a road trip from where I live currently in Ohio to good ol H-town. It was with a heavy heart that I saw the house I lived in on Hal Greer, about half a block from Meadows and the Baskin Robbins on the corner, tore down along with the adjoining houses. In the 80s my dad and I lived there. I had the most epic years with my circle of friends. The ringleader of our group lived on Enslow Blvd. We used to walk and play outside at any hour of the day or night without any threat of danger. Gentrification and social engineering will render the small to mid-size cities the new Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco and New York of the second quarter of the 21st Century.

      Awesome to hear that this area still has special qualities to it from your perspective, even after being able to compare it to many places over the world!
      And I think I know the spot you are talking about on Hal Greer when the house has been torn down. There may be a lot for sale over there.
      Thanks for the comment and Happy New Year!

    Grew up in Huntington. It used to be pretty nice but it’s been hit hard by the drug epidemic. Also, I have my doubts this guy lived in Huntington very long by the way he pronounces the name. No one who lives here pronounces it that way.

    • @_dickey
      @_dickey  21 день назад +1

      I’m hoping to start a new trend in the pronunciation. I’ve lived here all my life except when I left a little for college or seasonal work. But yeah, unfortunately there’s several people struggling in the area with addiction. Hopefully they can get the help they need.
