    Yes, Jeanie, that's it - and I haven't been around there in years, I
    had my fingers crossed that someone like you could take it further.
    I went to Lompoc COC site and they mention "The Valley of Flowers".
    Kevin Kelly mentioned Sequoia National Park, and I thought of that,
    too, but it's off the coastal route. For those of you who don't know
    - there's a fallen tree on it's side with a tunnel through it for
    the road - that's how big they are. If you want to get into the rest
    of Cal. - the #1 place that everyone should see in their lives is
    Death Valley. What a strange, cool, fascinating, alien place it is -
    if you go take a gallon of water each at least - seriously. Mono
    lake is nearly as strange, and of course there's Yosemite North and
    South, Mount Shasta, Mt. Lassen, the gold country, any place in the
    Sierras - Big Bear Lake, Lake Arrowhead, skiing, fishing, hiking -
    I'll say again, too, that Northern California has more than it's
    share of poison oak, anytime you're out there keep your eyes peeled
    for it. Nasy stuff. It's interesting to trade off sights here on the
    left coast, but the original writer, Lauren, will have her hands
    full - between San Diego and Mendocino there's only a trillion
    things to do. And don't forget the obvious - Disneyland IS the
    happiest place on earth - one of the best meals I ever had was in
    the main dining salon on the Queen Mary, pop over to Catalina, dance
    in the Avalon Ballroom.......
