The Redwood Curtain is a small black hole called the Emerald triangle, consisting of Humboldt, Del Norte, and Trinity County, just south of the OR border. I live in the little, used to be hick, town of Mckinleyville where you're either a logger, a pot grower, or work in the amenities business. If you don't love the city, and move here, you may be lucky enough to leave for a while, but you'll come back.
