Magalia (formerly Butte Mills and Dogtown) is a census-designated place (CDP) in Butte County, California, United States. The population was 11,310 at the 2010 census.
History
Originally established after the 1849 California Gold Rush as a mining camp, the town was first called Mountain View. A dog breeding operation started in 1850 which led to the name Dogtown. A post office opened in 1857, which was shared with the adjacent settlement of Mill City; the two eventually united. In 1861 the name was changed to Magalia after the Latin word for cottages.
On April 12, 1859, at the Willard Claim, a hydraulic mine in the Feather River Canyon northeast of the town, a 54-pound (20 kg) gold nugget was discovered, the largest in the world at the time. Dubbed the "Dogtown nugget", it made the town famous.
Geography and natural history
According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP has a total area of 14.1 square miles (37 km2), all of it land. There are numerous flora and fauna species found in the vicinity including mammals such as Black tailed deer, raccoon and grey squirrel. A considerable number of amphibians are also found such as the Rough-skinned Newt, whose southern range in California interior occurs near Magalia. The soil, deep reddish-brown loam for the most part, supports forest dominated by tall incense cedar and bull pine.

Let's Just Be
by: MiguelWe can watch a DVD baby
Sit up in the house and be, just be there
You ain't gotta get cute for me, truthfully

In one of my T-shirts
Bunny slippers on your feet, girl
Just tryna' be all up under me
On the coach or in front of TV

Let's just be (girl)
Let's just be
Ain't gon' be no runnin' round in these streets
Just my girl and me
Doin' whatever babe
Lets just be
Dinner from the microwave, okay girl
I'm gon' put my cell away, no distractions
Gonna take this day
To lay around and gather every lazy
Play a video game
Or maybe I'll paint your toenails (I'll sing you a song)
I'll sing you a song if you want me to
Girl it's whatever you wanna do
It's so simple
Let's just be
Let's just be
Ain't gon' be no runnin' round in these streets
Just my girl and me
Doin' whatever babe
Lets just be
Wrapped up in my arms
Girl until the morn'
Nothin is better my baby
Soon we'll fall a sleep
Then eventually we'll wake up and I'll be ready
(Lets just be)
Overcome by passion and lust
(let's just be)
Oh overwhelmed by each others touch
(let's just be)
On the brink of explosion when we
(oh when we)
Girl when we
(be)
When we just be!
Oh girl just be
yeah yeah yeah
Woo wooh
Let's just be
Ain't gon' be no runnin' round in these streets
Just my girl and me
Doin' whatever babe
