This chair was built c1909 in San Francisco, for an Eisteddfod (Welsh literary festival) there. It's been in California ever since, and today it held a place of honor on the stage at the St. David's Day festivities in rainy Los Angeles.

Sign outside a general store in Lucia, CA, on the coast road between Monterey and Big Sur, July 2008. We definitely saw fire damage along the coast, but McWay Falls and its beach were unharmed (barely), and the road was fine as of last week.

A beach (mostly) unvisited by human beings and its lovely waterfall. At Julia Pfeiffer Burns State Park, on the Coast Road between Monterey and Big Sur. We stopped to see it in December 1996, and again July 2008--beautiful in any season.
