Palm Springs CA and Coastal Drive to SF 1997

 November1997 - Palm Springs - San Francisco 

I don't remember much about this trip, so this is mainly a photo dump. I am guessing that we flew in and out of San Francisco.

Golf - perhaps John can identify?







Living Desert. It was a little different in 2015! 
















COASTAL DRIVE

17 Mile Drive

One of the most scenic drives on the Monterey Peninsula and quite possibly the world resides behind the prestigious gates of Pebble Beach. The famous 17-Mile Drive is a visually stunning stretch of roadway that hugs the Pacific coastline from Pacific Grove to Pebble Beach featuring awe-inspiring sights along the way.

We did this drive again in 2017.





The Lone Cypress is a Monterey cypress tree located in Pebble Beach, California. Standing atop a granite headland overlooking Carmel Bay, the tree has become a Western icon and has been called one of the most photographed trees in North America.

FLAG

I almost used this last week for the letter E Eagle!!! So I was thrilled when I saw Tom's choice of FLAG.

FLAG FINDLAY Ohio


The road to Findlay becoming designated Flag City, USA began in 1968 when John B. Cooke moved to Findlay. As a member of the Sons of the American Revolution, Cooke believed in the value of flying the American flag and went door-to-door in town asking residents and businesses alike to fly a flag on Flag Day, June 14, 1968. Cooke created a fund and purchased 14,000 small flags for the community. This project continued until 1974, when the Women’s Division of the Chamber of Commerce started a campaign to, once again, have flags fly and to have the city of Findlay become officially known as Flag City USA. On May 7, the House of Representatives passed a resolution officially declaring Findlay Flag City, USA.
