California State Railroad Museum | Print |  E-mail

The California State Railroad Museum in Old Town Sacramento, California is where the twains shall meet. It is a collection of beautifully-restored old locomotives and other railroadia set in nicely restored Old Sacramento, just across the river from the "House of Ahrnold" Admission is only four bucks, about one tenth the cost of a Disneyland or Great America, so it is great for kids of all ages.

 
The Monterey Bay Aquarium: Video and Audio | Print |  E-mail

For a moment recently, I wished I were a jellyfish. Now, a jellyfish that has washed up on a beach looks disgusting…like a discarded Ziploc bag. But the Jellies at the Outer Bay exhibit at the Monterey Bay Aquarium in California have reason to be envied.

Imagine spending your life tumbling languidly in liquid suspension while thousands of admirers ooh and awwh. Not bad for a gelatinous blob without heart or brain.
