Driving Highway One Make You Queasy?
Recently, LIRunner asked a question about Highway One through Big Sur in our forum: "... I am sort of scared of heights and do get motion sickness. I am not driving the car my friend is. Would I be okay... ?"

See what I said, but if you've been there, tell us: What's it like to drive along the Big Sur coast?


Photo of the Week: James Dean in Hollywood
The bust sits outside Griffith Observatory, where the final scenes of the James Dean Film Rebel Without a Cause were filmed. The Hollywood Sign is well over a mile away. Find out how we got them so close in the photo.

Rhyolite Ghost Town
It's really in Nevada, but it's so close to California and Death Valley that I'm going to call it a California attraction despite what my atlas says. Located east of Death Valley, this is the best-preserved ghost town in the area.
