San Luis Obispo Botanical Garden and Trails
Our mission is to honor and preserve our connection with nature.
THE GEM OF THE MORROS
The San Luis Obispo Botanical Garden is located near the Pacific Ocean on the Central Coast of California. When the Master Plan is complete, our 150 acre garden will be the only garden of its kind in the United States exclusively devoted to the ecosystems and plants of the five mediterranean climate regions of the world. Other components of the plan include miles of paved trails; demonstration, meditation, and event gardens; an explosion of art; sustainable buildings for education and research; and creative modes of transportation to provide easy access to the inspiring views throughout the Garden’s 500-foot elevation change.
OUR VISION
We endeavor to be a financially-sustaining botanical garden that displays and preserves the diverse plant life of mediterranean climate zones. We emphasize horticulture, education, research, sustainable and fire-safe practices, water conservation, children’s gardens of exploration, culinary demonstrations, life celebration gardens, health and nutrition, storytelling, and the arts.

NOURISH - Napa Valley Museum
The table. A place where people come together. Artist Nancy Willis wants us to notice the labor, the attention to detail, or the visual artist whose work is contributing to your next dining experience. NOURISH at the Napa Valley Museum reminds us to celebrate the beauty, strength, and relativity of the visual arts as a vital source of daily nourishment.
Let's pull artists and chefs together and see what happens.

10. UNCLAIMED BAGGAGE CENTER
An impressive 99.5 percent of domestic airline baggage is retrieved by the owner at the carousel. The remaining half percent undergoes an extensive three-month effort to reunite the lost items with their owners. Unfortunately, some of these bags remain unclaimed after this search effort.
9. HOLE ‘N THE ROCK
During the 1940’s, Albert and Gladys Christensen carved a 5,000 square foot home inside a massive sheet of rock in southeastern Utah’s Canyonlands Country. In 1952, after excavating more than 50,000 cubic feet of sandstone, the couple moved in. They ran a diner out of one of the room’s homes until 1955, when Albert had his first heart attack.
8. SALVATION MOUNTAIN
In the desert of Southern California, about 80 miles southeast of Palm Springs, there’s a 50-foot-high, 150-foot-wide mountain made out of local adobe clay. The clay mountain was covered in 100,000 gallons of paint by an artist who dedicated the mound to God.
7. LUCY THE MARGATE ELEPHANT
On Absecon Island near the Southern New Jersey seashore, there’s a 65-foot-tall wooden elephant staring out at the ocean. The elephant was named Lucy and according to historians, the sight of her caused shocked sailors to stop drinking rum for days. The bizarre pachyderm was designed and built by a land speculator named James V. Lafferty, Jr.
6. WALL OF GUM
When you are done chewing gum, hopefully you throw it away, because otherwise, you’d be littering - unless you’re in the cities of Seattle, Washington or San Luis Obispo, California, both of which feature their very own walls of gum. Bubblegum Alley in San Luis Obispo started sometime after World War II, likely as the result of a challenge between two rival schools or a tradition started by a graduating class.
5. CARHENGE
Stonehenge is located in Wiltshire, England, and is arguably one of the most important landmarks in history. In Alliance, Nebraska, you will find a very strange and unique tribute to that landmark in the form of Carhenge - as in Stonehenge, but instead of slabs of rock, you'll find cars. For the record, this isn't a simple mockery or tribute to Stonehenge.
4. WALL DRUG
Wall Drug may be strange when considered in a modern context, but back in the 1930's, it was one family's last hope for a sustainable life. In 1931, a man named Ted Hustead took his family and his last $3,000 and bought a small pharmacy in the South Dakota Badlands. At the time, the country was immersed in the Great Depression, and it wasn't an easy endeavor.
3. BALL OF TWINE
There are many tourists traps in the world that feature a largest [blank],” but one of the more interesting ones is the Ball of Twine in Cawker City, Kansas, which is, indeed, the world’s biggest ball of twine. It was created in 1953 by a local farmer named Frank Stoeber. He was unwell, and to pass the time, he rolled all his spare twine, which he’d saved from years of feeding bales of hay to his cows, into a ball.
2. ENCHANTED HIGHWAY
As you drive down Highway I-94 in North Dakota, you’ll pass a series of special monuments and statues that are far beyond what you might expect from this typical, humdrum Midwestern region. The spectacle begins near Gladstone at Exit 72 and continues for around 32 miles.
1. NICOLAS CAGE’S TOMB
You might be thinking, Wait a minute, isn't Nicolas Cage still alive? Well, yes, he is. Quite alive, in fact, and still making movies. However, as his acting career has proven, Cage has made a name for himself by doing rather eccentric things, including buying an extravagant tomb in New Orleans.

[한국어 정보]
이곳은 미국 서민들의 일상을 가장 가깝게 만날 수 있는 곳이다. 오늘은 브로드웨이에 장이 서는 날. 시장 앞에 많은 사람들이 기다리고 있었다. 한국의 5일장처럼 이곳에도 일주일에 한 번, 7일장이 선다. 이 시장은 이 지역 농민들이 자율적으로 운영하는 농민 시장이다. 대부분 농민들이 생산한 채소가 주류를 이루고 있다. 나도 이들과 함께 시장 구경에 나섰다. 늘어선 가게들 가운데 가장 눈에 들어오는 곳이 호박꽃을 파는 채소 가게였다. 나는 궁금해서 호박꽃을 어떻게 요리하는지 농민에게 물었다. “치즈와 함께 튀겨도 되고 구워도 됩니다. 또는 잘게 잘라서 올리브 오일과 마늘을 넣고 께사디아로 먹어도 되요. 이탈리안 치즈와도 잘 어울려요.“ 멕시코 사람들의 주식인 또르띠야를 파는 가게다. 언제부터인가 또르띠야는 미국사람들이 즐겨먹는 음식이 되었다. 친절한 가게 아가씨가 촬영하는 나에게 맛을 보라며 또르띠야 한 조각을 건네주었다. 옆 가게에서는 멕시코 기념품을 팔고 있었다.

This is where you can meet people closest to the daily life of the United States. Today is the day Zhang stand on Broadway. Many people were waiting in front of the market. 5 photoperiod like South Korea, even here once a week, 7 photoperiod stands this. This market is the local farmers market farmers operate autonomously. Most are farmers who produce vegetables, a mainstay. I went to the market with their visit. The shops where the most visible among the incoming lined with shops selling vegetables was hobakkkot. I am curious and asked farmers how to cook hobakkkot. The deep fried with cheese is also guwodo. Or finely cut and put the olive oil and garlic to eat doeyo kkesa Dia. Italian cheeses and also very becoming on you. The shop sells shares of ttoreuttiya of the Mexican people. When the food was from isp.com ttoreuttiya American people enjoy eating. See the store and friendly lady said to me the taste for shooting ttoreuttiya handed a piece. The next shop was selling Mexican souvenirs.

Ryan Jordan, Lecturer, 19th century United States History
It's really hard to know what's going on right now because we don't get a lot of straight information, but I will likely be cut after this year. In addition, I've been seeing increased class sizes so I really have questions about the teaching mission of the university. Certainly undergraduate education is not a priority. And that begs a question: what are tax payers paying for?

WHITE SANDS NATIONAL MONUMENT-SAND DUNE-NEW MEXICO NATIONAL PARK-SLEDDING-EP35
While driving Myles (that's what we call our rig) through New Mexico, we stopped for a couple days near White Sands National Monument. The sand and the dunes are amazing. They're composed of gypsum crystals or you could call it plaster of paris.... really soft... and white!! We recaptured our youth by sledding down the dunes in 79 degrees!
