I'll be in the very lowest part of Northern California kind of by the coast (Monterey area). My dad said I'll probably want to visit the Intel museum. Is there anything else I might want to see?

It's usually the point where that Latino population starts to outnumber their Caucasian counterparts 2:1.

I live in California also. I tend to spend a lot of my time in Las Vegas, however. In fact, I just flew into town today.

He didn't ask 'who should I murder?'

Wouldn't like to be Eldar's wallet :ph34r:

Fortunately Bok (Hollywood) & yours truly (Palm Springs) won't have to worry about becoming another statistic as we're SoCal homies. :cool:

Boy, are my arms tired.

Eldar, next time I'm in Vegas, I'll look you up. I have went every year for the past 6 years. Not this year though.

I think Cali would be like totally awesome and far out.

Fixed Jag.

If you are close to Hearst Castle, it is worth a visit.

Hell, I've met with other online geeks... I mean friends.... while I was in Las Vegas. I spend at least a full third of my year there. I hate to break it to you, Bok, but I don't gamble much. However, I did win $11 this time, enough to cover Starbucks for a friend and myself.

I'm thinking that we should go drinking when I hit Vegas next spring, Eldar.

I live in the heart of Northern California, so I can give a few tips.

 

1. Visit San Francisco for a day. It's actually a pretty small little city, and you can walk the entire downtown area if you are in decent shape. Visit Pier 39, but not on a weekend. The place is crowded. Get a tour of Alcatraz. Walk the Golden Gate. Take a ferry somewhere. Go to "The Stinking Rose" for dinner. This is an excellent restaurant that specializes in garlic dishes. It's easier than visiting Gilroy.

 

2. You said you are in the low part of Northern California. Do you have a town name? If you are near Hearst Castle, that's an excellent place to visit.

 

3. Carmel and Monterey are a bit further north, but they are excellent places to visit as well. There are some great Coastal redwoods in Big Basin as well. Just driving up and down Highway 1 is a pretty great experience...if you don't get car sick.

 

I've spent a lot of time exploring the area, as my wife and I don't have money for long distance vacations. If you are more clear about your expectations, timeline, and location, I can throw out some more info. It's a lovely part of the world.

Both of those are more central Cali than Northern. Northern Cali is usually referred to as the Coastal region between Monterey and Napa. Although technically I guess it ends at Oregon, with Chico being the last major city (and that's debatable.)

Why are you so pessimistic?

Because people like bok, jags, jim and calax live there. I mean, who WOULDN'T be suicidal?

17-mile dive should be close. Heast castle should be good, too.
