I've watched quite a few videos such as yours and you have some of the best ones! Just dabbling with this but I already see that it isn't nearly as simple as one might think to do a good video. Nice work!
I'm from Corona and have seen the outside of the mission many times as a kid and as an adult at 29 moved to Placerville CA. I am 81 now and boy is there a lot of changes in the area.
I can imagine...I lived in Corona from 1997 to 2016...it was mostly orange groves in the southern part next to the national Forrest...so many houses and people now 😂
I graduated class of 60 from Corona Senior High, there were groves surrounding Corona. The wonderful smell of them when in bloom was indescribable. My folks built their second home at the top of Howe, upper El Cerrito area, on the canyon rim with groves all around them. Fortunately they passed away before all the groves were decimated so they could plant 20,000 homes there. They did get the news the homes were coming, and it was a sad day when they heard it. In my day we knew just about every body in Corona, at least if they had school kids, only 3 schools at the time, elementary, Jr. High and High school. Things never stay the same, I think for the worse.
Love that you are showing some extra loce for our inland empire. (We use to live in the mission inn when our house burned down and got to see the festival from the inside). Appreciate your work!!
Great video! Casey’s cupcakes is owned by the daughter of the people that own the Mission Inn. She was on the Laguna Beach series, and I believe the family still lives in Laguna Beach.
discovered your channel just now...really like it! I love your warm personality and that you always seem happy and enthusiastic. I lived in the south but I have been to CA specifically Morro Bay and the Sequoyah Nat'l...just curious have you seen bigfoot? CA specifically Bluff Creek is the bigfoot capital...have a great day!
Love your travel videos with your dad. Surprised though that you haven't hit Tehachapi Loop since you love unique train things. Amazing engineering went into the loop.
I already have plans to visit Riverside in California to visit a new hindu temple there but this festival gives me more reasons to go there when i come across from london.
I was at the switch on ceremony and it was crowded beyond belief this year! The music lineup was also really good. Did you make it all the way to the big Christmas tree? I didn’t see it in your video😎
