'Oldies But Goodies' Along Big Sur, California

Living along the coast, both on the east and west of the USA, has allowed for a certain comfort and zen. One is never too far from relaxation and meditation. Sunrise on the east or sunset on the west -- crashing waves, birds and in some cases sea lions. The beauty of it all is that both beaches are so very different from each other and both offer their own unique feeling of serenity. Whether hiking, camping or just walking your dog, it doesn't get any better than living close to a large body of water.

During a previous trip to California, we took a trip up north to the famous and inspiring Big Sur Highway which stretches an enormous portion of the west-coast. The landscape is so vast and wild that the majority of the land can not, and probably will never be landscaped or lived on. Here an artist of any kind can come and find the true meaning of life and beauty ranging from the curves of the landscape to the harsh edges of the rocks and steep cliffs dropping down to the ocean.

Here are just a couple of images from a previous trip. It's a true adventure, every time we ride the 1 north to San Fransisco or south to gorgeous Santa Barbara. There's always something new to see and experience! We hope that one day you may have the opportunity to see these beauties of nature first hand-- until then, please enjoy these photographs of the Californian 'Golden Coast.'
