Indio, place is pretty awesome. The people are great and I have a good job. Things are pretty good so far. I have been here 5 weeks so far.
EDIT: That area is stunning though. The water is amazing and full of life. I was in that area last summer and it was pretty awesome.
I know where Indo is. Haven't spent much time there. Mendocino is awesome.
Yea, it is pretty good down here mainly because of the people. There isn't really a lot to do outside of working and going out.
