Eureka, CA - 4775 Miles

We're spent two nights in Eureka giving us a full day to wander the town. Even so we had a difficult time squeezing lunch, ice cream, and happy hour into the same day. We visited the dunes on the coast, the boardwalk and marina area, and walked the central area of town. Most homes and commercial buildings were built between 1880 and 1910. Whether by accident or planning the Victorian flavor of the town has been kept since then. Like many California coastal towns it would be a nice place to live if you don't need a job, don't want to buy a house, don't care about taxes, and don't mind a large population percentage who never escaped the '60s. Since those aren't major concerns of mine, I like it here. Tomorrow we head to Oregon. My dilemma is deciding if I need additional expensive California gas to get there.
