We decided to stop in Nice, CA, to visit Clarke’s Collectibles, a museum of lunchboxes, toys, and similar kitsch. The owner, Deb Clarke, is about as nice a person as you’ll ever meet. As I looked around, I saw at least one lunchbox I’d had as a kid.






After our visit, we checked into the Featherbed Railroad B&B Resort. All the rooms are repurposed cabooses. I felt like I was on “The Wild, Wild West.”


Next: the Devil’s Cauldron.
