Trees of Mystery
A famous tourist t/r/a/p/ stop on US 101 in the coast redwood country of far northern California, about 35 miles from the Oregon line. It features gigantic statues of Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox (leftmost inset), a copy of "End of the Trail" (next inset to right), a Trail of Tall Tales (middle inset) featuring chainsaw sculptures (rightmost insets), and (of course!) a gigantic gift shop filled with all manner of kitsch (straight ahead). There's also a motel and restaurant.
In fairness, it's not _all_ kitsch--there's a nice interpretive trail among the tall coast redwoods (Sequoia sempervirens), as well as a short tramway to the ridge above the site, from which you can hike down if you want (I did). I'll post on them Real Soon Now.
Funny, this trip was in spring 2019, but already seems much longer ago--what The Year of Covid has done!

Boy do I agree with your feelings of MEH! when it comes to the idiotic tourism garbage that spews forth from places like this. But still, if you take it for what it is and ignore the money-grubbing businesses, there is fun to be had and an enjoyable time is exactly what we had for our brief 15 minutes there. Was there a lively discussion from Paul to the others when you visited? Couldn't get over that one, totally hilarious! The fellow talking for Paul was actually talking to a child who couldn't figure out how he was being singled out but was bouncing up and down with the fun of it! LOL, still remember him turning round and round, looking for the person speaking for Paul! The secret was never exposed and the three of us were grinning as we hopped on our motorcycles and rode away!
