Pros: Raw, wild coastline vistas
Cons: Most restaurants and lodging are fair
A tiny and secluded village, Shelter Cove is worth every bit of a gorgeously-frustrating- "road-runner" drive to get to. No wonder-the town was first designed to be a community of posh getaway homes for Southern Californians with private...

We've stayed in and around Bodega Bay many times; it's only two hours from Sacramento, so about the closest North Coast location for us to visit.
We always ask locals for their...

Daytripper or weekend warrior, Santa Cruz is a feast for the senses and a mellow detour from the treadmills of life. This beach community's population ebbs and flows with tourist season. One question,...

Pros: Great beach, quiet, restful.
Cons: No pool or spa, busy in summer.
If you've been looking for a great place to camp on the beach with hook-ups, we've found just the place for you!! It's called Caspar Beach, just 6 miles south of Fort Bragg on HWY 1, turn on Pt. Cabrillo Dr. and you can't miss it. It's called...

Pros: Beautiful Country, Lots of History
Cons: Hard to Find Food to Please Everybody
I just discovered a well kept secret. Angels Camp and its surrounding towns. Ok, it may not be a huge secret but I've lived in northern California my whole life and never knew what a beautiful area lied just east beyond the hills of Stockton in...

Pros: Breath-taking landscape; romantic getaway
Cons: Can be difficult to make reservations during tourist season
If I could create the perfect weekend-getaway setting, I would paint my picture in the town of Mendocino, California. Mendocino is the kind of town that artists spend endless days in painting the varying light, the wildflower colors, and the movement...

Pros: Friendly Laid Back Atmosphere, Beautiful Flowers, Legoland
Cons: None
Carlsbad, California is about an hour's drive from Anaheim, and the same coming from San Diego on Highway 101. If you are into trains, take the Coaster commuter train between San Diego and the two Coaster stations in Carlsbad. The views of the coast...

So like many others with hopes of joining the entertainment industry, I packed my things and moved to California after graduating from college. Now that I'm here and getting settled, here are a few things other should know before packing up all their...

Pros: forces contemplation of living things
Cons: forces contemplation of living things
If you have yet to see the Big Trees in Northern California, you have not seen California. Yes, it is a huge state. I am sure lots of people live their entire lives IN California and never make it far north, but I am begging you: see these trees.

Pros: Everything, animate or inanimate, is beautiful
Cons: Smelly pollution
I don’t know about you, but I’ve always wished they all could be California girls. And they can be for just a little cash and an adventurous spirit. All you have to do is take a trip to the gorgeous state of California. While your there, be sure to...

Pros: Inexpensive, relaxing, California beach town vibe
Cons: No attractions, isolated-small-town vibe
'Here we are, Pismo Beach and all the clams you can eat' -- so quoth Bugs Bunny (after taking a 'wrong turn at Albuquerque.') The town managed to lock on to this somehow; the main landmarks are large cement clams, and we actually did see a 'Wed --...

Pros: Decent price on film developing
Cons: The employees are creeps, and the store is a mess
Just the other day I went to the Wal-Mart in San Dimas to pick up some photos I had taken on my trip to Las Vegas. Granted, my photos aren't going to have the same nostalgic effect that my hooker rags have, but I wanted to get them developed none the...

Pros: A really rather pretty town
Cons: Snotty attitude spoils a lot of the pros
Warning to the sensitive: rants and folk song lyrics appear below.

There is a nifty small-town feel to Ojai; it seems to have escaped the chain store rampage that's overtaken most of the continent. Small boutiques and independent stores and...
