California

Over 20 years ago, I took a trip out to California.  I started out in Los Angelos and drove up to San Francisco.  I had visited the famous Venice Beach, Disneyland, Sunset Boulevard, Napa Valley, Muir Woods and few other stops along the way.  The most impressive thing to me were the Redwood trees of Muir Woods, the cool blue water of the Ocean, and the fact that the Golden Gate bridge is not gold or yellow but rather a reddish-orange color.  I've been back to California one more time (San Diego) on business.  Perhaps I will visit again, someday.
