Sure it is. Take your map out and draw a line 1/2 way between the state (West to East).

The San Joaquin Valley begins at the bottom of the Mts (Grapevine) and extends north to around Redding. No wait, up north there it's the Sacramento Valley.

When the summer temps in Kern County are 100+ (day after day, week after week, and month after month) the more southernly places like LA and SD are in the 80's (sometimes hotter). Except the more easternly places out toward Palm Springs, it gets hot out there too.

Anything else you need to know about my neighborhood?

Ha!

Bakersfield et al is trying to sneak into So Cal huh? What a bunch of sandbaggers.

OK you can trick those on the east coast with the map trick.. The rest know So cal begins at Grapevine.

Personally, if I lived anywhere near the area, I'd be looking for map trickery to NOT be considered part of socali.

Not if you lived in the slime pit that is kern county.. you'd be looking for someone to accept you into their area, any area.

What happened to those nice Celsius degrees, you were using? Now I can't read what you're writing!

With two of my partners I'm planning to buy some slacks for next year. It ain't easy with all those different sizes and no converttabels. Why can't we all at this world use the same rules, sizes, laws, lanes to drive over? Be friends no matter the skin, religion or size off ones feet?

I was taught that anything south of Grapevine was considered northern Mexico.
