  1. An unlikely blend at Hearst Castle

    Contra Costa Times

  2. The inner workings of Hearst Castle

    San Simeon, Calif.
    Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
    San Simeon, Calif. It doesn't take long, wandering behind the scenes among the 38 bedrooms and 41 bathrooms (not counting those in the guest quarters next door), to sense a few differences between your house and Hearst Castle. The museum accreditation,...

  3. Old-World classics: Palm Springs, San Diego & Sierra Nevada boutique hotels

    The Château du Sureau and Erna's Elderberry House restaurant nestle near the town of Oakhurst, a 30-minute drive from the south entrance of Yosemite National Park. It's God's country, all hay-colored Sierra foothills and thickets of stately pines in a...

  4. Beachfront NIMBYs

    JOEL BRAND is chairman of Friends of 415 PCH.
    ALTHOUGH thousands of $400-a-night hotel rooms have sprung up along our coastline in the past decades, few if any new campgrounds, parks or other public facilities have been built to accommodate the other 98% of Californians who can't afford to pay five-...

  5. Steady stream of PCH traffic, but miles of ocean too

    Special to The Times
    This is a neighborhood people hurtle past at 60 miles an hour (though the posted speed is 45), where houses are built just a few yards from a major six-lane highway, yet residents can step out their back gates and walk barefoot to the local restaurant...

  6. F. Scott Fitzgerald Country

    It was the beginning of a decade of Prohibition and apparent prosperity: a time of jazz bands and petting parties, high-stepping flappers and college boys with hip flasks.

  8. Chew. Spit. Repeat.

    Looking back, the truest sign that then-Vivendi Universal honcho Jean-Marie Messier was toast may have come when he showed up for a public forum at the Beverly Hilton two years ago with Viacom Chief Executive Sumner Redstone and other entertainment industry power players, and he wasn't wearing a necktie. The accepted sartorial style for Eurobusiness potentates is, after all, buttoned-up, highly starched, primary colors formality with all the accoutrements — forget the pocket square and you might as well be naked. On that occasion, Messier had on a shrimp-colored open-necked shirt under his charcoal gray suit. But that affront to taste was just one sign that yet another outsider had gone Hollywood. He had gotten slimmer too, and radiated a healthy tan even in photos.

  11. 'The Cat's Meow'

  12. In the shadow of celebrities and soldiers

    One of the first signs that we were on an Army base was this posting on the path that leads to the Hacienda Guest Lodge: "You are entering a no-hat, no-salute area."
    Times Staff Writer
    One of the first signs that we were on an Army base was this posting on the path that leads to the Hacienda Guest Lodge: "You are entering a no-hat, no-salute area." The second came on our first morning here, the kind of day that only California can...
