So are you going to explore the back-roads of Waco,TX?
Anyway, I noticed where your old house was.. interesting history near there. “Castaic Lake”, “Lake Piru”, “Pyramid Lake” and “Quail Lake” are all part of the aqueduct bringing water down from Mono Lake. The aqueduct disappears underground shortly after Quail Lake and basically reappears as “Castaic Lake”. The system is designed to use the energy of the water going downhill to power the system pumping the water uphill. The tunnel through the mountains is not flat.
I tend to like to explore old roads, aqueducts(With SoCalal being largely arid, they are very important to the development that occurred in SoCal)
