Looks like HWY 1 will be closed much longer now

I hear you - I lived in California when I was in my 20s, and still remember at work when my chair started shaking hard one day - I turned around to see who was kidding around, grabbing the back of my chair. But nobody was there.

We did on Sunday and it was really a beautiful place. (Unfortunately a tree in the parking lot jumped out at us, but that's another story.)

Had to abandon our plan this month to drive up the coast from Morro Bay to Carmel, but we're just tourists - I really feel for those residents whose lives and businesses have been upended all year in Big Sur.

We've been visiting the CA missions along 101 instead, and today drove to Point Lobos State Park for at least a taste of CA coastal scenery. Maybe will return someday.

Nuts! Terrible news. However, I believe Caltrans is trying.
