California's greatest...?
Living in what many consider to be the greatest state in the country (if not the greatest place in the world), I think it would be pretty neat if we could come up with a list of cool places to go/awesome sights to see in California.
The list could include restaurants, shops, views, parks, or just anything that really stands out and is worthy of being mentioned. Anyone can make recommendations, and hopefully post reviews and pictures (with their Camaros front and center, of course!). Think of it as a sort of "traveler's guide" - a sure-fire way to find worthwhile locations in whichever part of the Golden State you may find yourself in. We have a lot of members in California, and with our combined wisdom () I think we could end up with something awesome. Just my $0.02.

Crestview in Belmont. You can see 3, sometimes 4 bridges. It's windy so bring a jacket.
Napa Valley Wine country. Alice's Restaurant @ 4 corners on Skyline Blvd/HWY35. Expensive but the atmosphere is great for car guys and gals. |

There is a restaurant in the harbor in San Diego that you can eat and
watch the sea traffic. When a naval ship goes by it is an incredible site to see. |

Where do you start?
Angeles Crest Highway & Angeles Forest Highway (when they're open) The Windmill Farms just beyond Banning on 10 are pretty cool Coronado Island is pretty cool to drive around if you like Naval Aviation Santa Barbara and Santa Barbara wine country Joshua Tree National Park Camp Pendleton along 5 is good if you love seeing Pave Lows, Apaches, Blackhawks and Chinooks Point Dume |
