People need to care and respect the property of others, public or private. I have a whole year to think about whether I'll be their next year or not. Actually, I would like to vacation somewhere else for a change. Every year, I am amazed at the amount of trash that is left on the beach, in the water, on the bay, etc. People ruin everything good in life.
Locals can only do so much damage.
When a place like OC turns into a metropolis overnight, you have to expect a mess. I agree with Dave. The vacation attitude takes hold. The being over crowded and cluttered look of OC theses days you blame on the local government. OC used to be so nice.
