The beaches of the area offer a wide expanse of sand at Salmon Creek which is where the creek meets the ocean.

The Wooden Sculpture
A little bit about the creator: Romano Gabriel, a carpenter and gardener, took 30 years of his life to make the hundreds of brilliant and arresting objects he placed in front of his home on Pine Street in Eureka. Gabriel fashioned his brightly painted trees and flowers out of vegetable crates, adding droll faces and figures to create a fantasy for the delight of all that view his work.

California Wine Trails
There are thousands of wineries in California, way too many to list individually so I have asked the owners of a great site - www.winecountrygetaway.com to allow me to place their site in conjunction with ours to provide you with a wide range of places to visit with insider information on what their thoughts are and to give you suggestions.
While I was trying to find what I considered to be the best site for information this particular site seemed to fit the need best. It is done with taste, creativity and personal experience. For a listing of many, many of the wine trails throughout the state of California go to this site and begin your California Vacation experience in wine country.
California Beach Weddings
California Beach Weddings
Having bonfires on the beach is somewhat of a state passion in California. Everyone does it. Teenagers do it to sneak away with their friends and drink beer. Their parents do it to catch up with old friends or have family outings. It is legal in many California beaches, and tolerated on most of the rest of them. As long as you are willing to keep your bonfire contained and take precautions to make sure that it doesn’t become a runaway forest fire, the Rangers will be happy to let you have it.

If you have ever been curious about the stately redwood forests located in northern California, then you are not alone. These amazing trees can live for over 2000 years and also grow over 300 feet tall. No one knows why they live so long or grow so tall, but theories abound on the subject. Most visitors are awed by the majestic size and beautiful surroundings.
