3. Elephant Seal Rookery San Simeon
The northern elephant seal is one of two species of elephant seal . It is a member of the family Phocidae . Elephant seals derive their name from their great size and from the male's large proboscis, which is used in making extraordinarily loud roaring noises, especially during the mating competition. Sexual dimorphism in size is great. Correspondingly, the mating system is highly polygynous; a successful male is able to impregnate up to 50 females in one season.

Visit to the Reagan Ranch Center in Santa Barbara, California

Here is a quick tour of the Reagan Ranch Center Exhibit Galleries in this 22,000 sq ft facility next to the Amtrak station on State Street in Santa Barbara. Here you will find personal items and artifacts on display from Reagan's Santa Barbara ranch, Rancho del Cielo. Interactive and interesting exhibits. A nice complement to displays at the Reagan Library in Simi Valley. One neat item on display is a 1981 blue Jeep Scrambler CJ-8 given by Nancy Reagan to the President on April 2, 1983 as a late birthday present. I should have asked how they got that in there on the 2nd floor of the building! More information about the Reagan Ranch Center Galleries at
