Art Deco Associated Pacific


Near the intersection of Highways 1 and 41 in the town of Morro Bay is the business of Associated Pacific, with Art Deco for a front and a Quonset Hut to hold the guts.

Art in a Box


Inside 41 Trading Post, in the back, under a shelter, is a box. Inside the box are 10 pieces of puzzling art.

Oakhurst Cemetery


On a hill, where the Little Church was moved in 1957, is the Oakhurst Cemetery. The church's freshly painted boards stand out against the green around and the blue above. American and California flags fly unfurled in front. Down the hill row-trees (oaks? cottonwoods?) have been cut off about head high. The stumps remain, looking strangely cross-like, while the upper trunks and limbs are piled up next to a fence, which partially hides them from view. In stoves around the county all this wood will turn to ashes, as have humans stored in urns nearby.
