It is the worst county about divorce and child support. When I went through divorce in San Jaoquin…read morecounty the first thing they laid out was support and how the children were going to be kept in the same lifestyle they were in. My husband went through the same thing when he divorced in this county 20 years ago. KIDS were FIRST!!!! Well I've been watching my child go through it not one care about anything for the child and what's in that babies best interest. I've seen blatent disrespect for our judicial system by the other party and complete perjury and the circus keeps going. The other parent says he needs $1400 a month for food for one person and can't provide 1 penny for the child. Disgusting if your going to live in a community make sure they have good values and I know the head presiding does. So whats wrong with the others????

Things and stuff in Redding…read more.. The coronavirus changed the way people live and how businesses operate. Redding has plenty of outdoor activities from hiking to fishing to kayaking... not to mention within a 30 mile radius of Redding are more than 600 square miles of State and National Parks and Forests open to public access. You'd be complying with social distancing! Redding is known as the "Trails Capital of California" unfortunately, I'm not an avid hiker. I live through hiking photos from seasoned hikers, Elmer and Shayla. I do enjoy sightseeing and beautiful scenery so we do "some" hiking. Redding experiences over 300 days of sunshine, Redding is the 2nd sunniest city in the U.S and last week we came to spend a weekend here. It was 108° degrees, humid, then the following day thunderstorm! Forbes Magazine named Redding a "Top 10 Fishing Town in North America." The Sacramento River runs clear and cold right through the heart of Redding and is California's longest river beginning near Mt. Shasta and flowing into the San Francisco Bay. All of Redding's drinking water comes from the Sacramento River. Redding is home to the Cascade Theatre which opened Friday, August 9, 1935. It's got some historic background behind it and, supposedly, it's haunted! Unfortunately, due to Covid-19 it remains temporarily closed. Under Governor Newsom's plan, venues like the Cascade Theatre will not be able to reopen until stage four. Damn this pandemic! Lastly, we saw for the first time The Sundial Bridge. The bridge is pretty famous and is a California icon and one of the largest working sundials in the world. It is a pedestrian bridge over the Sacramento River in the heart of Redding. Beautiful bridge. Saw it in the daytime and nighttime. Redding is not exempt from wildfires. In July 28, 2018 the city experienced one of the California's large wildfire that burned in Shasta and Trinity Counties -- The Carr Fire. This was big news in Northern California. The fire burned 229,651 acres destroying many homes and structures and, sadly, deaths. I found it ironic that the Carr Fire was caused by a car... yup, the fire started when a flat tire on a car caused the wheel's rim to scrape against the asphalt, creating sparks that set off the fire. So sad. We have not experienced a good dine-in restaurant in Redding because of the pandemic. I'm not fond of takeout too much. Once in a while I like to be served inside a nice restaurant.

Downtown Redding is tiny. The main street is going through a renovation phase. There are unique…read morestores to shop and restaurants to dine-in. The only down side is there are trasients would approach to ask for money. The businesses frowned on it because they come back the same restaurant and wait on customer to peddle. Overall, not much to do in the downtown area.

The Red Bluff River Park is in sad condition. What has the potential to be a fabulous community…read morepark right on the bank of the Sacramento River has become and old dilapidated eyesore. The park does offer the usual amenities (bbq pits, tables, etc.) It is also home to the Public Swimming Pool, has river access for boats, and hosts a couple of community events. The catch is... everything is in poor shape. The parking lot hasn't been resurfaced in years, the playground is extremely outdated (my kids don't like it at all), there is only one basketball court, the bathrooms are all in bad shape, many of the sprinklers leak leaving muddy places everywhere, other areas of the lawn are dry, and the whole place is a major hang out for the homeless and drug crowd. I could go on but I think you get the point. It's a shame such a beautiful and large park has been neglected to the point a family has no desire to spend any time there. I wish someone at city hall would accept the challenge to get this park in the shape the public deserves.

If your visiting the must see Sundial bridge you might as well take a few more steps to come here…read more This garden is literally in the shadows of the Sundial bridge. Its fun to see all the plants and then have a peek a boo view of the bridge in the distance. It is very well maintained and thought out space. The day I visited it was very hot but there is a water fountain and a little shady spot right at the entrance. I met some friendly people there - one a traveler by train eager to see all the national parks. Walking in the heat - it must have been near 95 - you've got to be in good shape. There are large main trails and then smaller ones. I saw what I could with my time constraints and was happy to jump back in my car with a/c. Felt almost like a spa experience. There is so much to see in Turtle Bay I think you might want to set aside a few hours to see it all.

One of my favorite places to go in Chico is Bidwell Park. We have family living in Chico and the…read morepark is in walking distance. I like to take warly morning walks through the park, getting my steps in. There are often many joggers, walkers, bikers and kids playing and families picnicing. Bidwell is the heart of Chico, spanning over 3,600 acres. Through the different seasons, the leaves change and provide a really beautiful park to explore. It's an older park, which you can see in the details - the outdoor swimming pool, bridges and layout. It was established in 1905, but has a long history of incorporating new areas to the park. I highly recommend checking out Bidwell Park, it's a natural treasure.

We really wanted to do loop walk, but never actually found that trail. I would want to give 4.5 if you could give half points, because more signage is needed to direct people toward the nature center and specific trails. That said, this park is such a great feature in Chico!
