I called my 85 year old dad. I asked him what was the nickname of California. He said the Golden State. I asked him "since when" and he said ever since he was a kid, because of the 1849ners and the gold rush. I asked my dad if he had any of those pennants that he used to collect as a kid that had Golden State written on them and instead he took me down the rabbit hole of his childhood bedroom with maybe 2 walls of those felt pennants plastered on them. LOL
I called Kalani and he said Hawaii was never known as the Golden State. So who knows what that scribe meant!
