Well I have been meaning to write a post on Poway for a while… Not many people know about it, but they should! I moved to Poway (P-Town) when I was about 1 year old. I was born in San Jose, CA and I can’t remember the reason we moved, but I’m glad we did! We lived in the same house the whole time, and it was probably the best house to grow up in. We had a great neighborhood, a big pool, and a huge hill to fly down in a red wagon. Most of the time we had a dog named Maggie; she is a Beagle, and lived for about 15 years (I think). My one favorite memory of Maggie (although I was pissed off then) was when I was riding around our backyard on my new go-kart and I was eating my delicious pizza. Maggie then jumped over me, and in the process, grabbed my pizza out of my hands. She was REALLY smart and figured out like 20 ways to get into our pantry. I was very involved in Boy Scouts and went on MANY campouts. I made some really good friends growing up, mainly Taran Sorensen, Ryan Thompson, and Jordan Hier. We were all in the same ward together so we pretty much grew up together. I went to Pomerado Elementary, Meadowbrook Middle School (also known as ghettobrook : ) and Poway High School. I had lots of fun in middle school but REALLY enjoyed high school. We had a diverse culture, and Poway High was known for it’s beautiful ladies. Poway is only about 15 mins (via the 56) from the beach, so it was always cool to run over to the beach and grab some in n out after. It is in North County San Diego, but we have our own mayor and city council (which my mom is on currently). Poway is a “tree city” which means you have to have a certain number of trees in your city.
It has great stores and restaurants, as well as plenty of off-roading and racing spots : ). One thing I would love is to raise my kids in Poway. It is mainly republican and has lots of LDS people so I feel like its a really good environment. This means I need to make alot of money when I grow up, which I am fine with. Hopefully house prices will go down…
