look this way

The 101 might be over 1500 miles long, but it's not all serious driving. There's plenty of quirky points along the way. Whole towns that look as if they have been updated from a Wild West set and there's plenty of points places where there's images shouting to drivers from the roadside.

"Stop! Look at me! Come on Over!"

Okay, we did drop into this one, the 'Trees of Mystery', but almost reluctantly drove past the "Tour Thru Tree" which was off to the side of the 101, but incredibly well advertised.

Yes, we're in Redwood country now and they are giants. And I'm expecting to see more tomorrow as we head further south in Northern California.
