Rick's Top Ten Sites to See

1. Big Sur Coast of California – mountains meeting the ocean, and the thrill of a roller coaster ride.

2. Grand Canyon – it's like God painted it.

3. Oak Creek Canyon and the Red Rocks of Sedona - you get to drive through the canyon. Not as big as the Grand, but amazing.

4. Giant Redwoods of California - want to feel small? Stand next to one of these.

5. Mardi Gras in New Orleans - I don't get it, but it was fun.

6. Saguaro cactus and desert of Arizona - like being in an old western movie.

7. Florida Keys and Key West - if only it had been a bit warmer! Conch fritters and Key Lime Pie.

8. San Antonio - River Walk, The Alamo and more. A great vacation destination.

9. Hearst Castle - Decadence to the max. Some people just have too much money.

10. Deserts of Nevada, Arizona, and New Mexico - the scenery changes constantly.
