My Hometown

I was born and raised in Chico, Ca. I love Chico, not only because I was born here, but because of the history, landscape, and just the people that live here in Chico. At most cities, if someone were to say hi to someone else, they get a strange look on their face, as if saying, "I don't know you, why they hell are you saying hi to me!" kind of look. People here in Chico are nicer than any other place. Even if you don't know the person that you pass by in Chico, you can still wave or say hi to them, and you too will get a nice greet in return.
The history that Chico has is just unbelievable. Even though I've lived here my whole life, I didn't know much about Chico history until recently. A man from So Cal came to Chico about a year ago, to learn about the history of Chico. Of course, everyone in Chico knows about John Bidwell, the man who discovered Chico. Most people don't know, but Mr. Bidwell had all this land and he donated part of his land to go to the parks we have to day; which by the way, Chico has one of the biggest parks in the US, and land for our college Chico State University to go on. Also some other history about Chico, is there was a man that went to Chico State, he dropped out to invent beer; which is now known as Sierra Nevada. All of Sierra Nevada beer is brewed here in Chico at the Sierra Nevada Brewery. Everything made to perfection and home-grown plants to help make the beer.
As for the landscape; Chico is known for having the most greenery. I love Chico, becuase through out the seasons, no matter what Chico looks like, everything still looks beautiful. My favorite part of Chico is driving down Esplanade in Autumn and Spring. Esplanade always looks beautiful around that time. I'm proud to be a Chicoan
