It's my impression that tourists in this area focus so much on Monterey, Pebble Beach, and Carmel that they easily look over Pacific Grove, the town between Pebble Beach and Monterey. Oh, Verona WI: Forget "Hometown USA"; PG is known to those who read its welcome sign as "Butterfly Town USA". Bunches of migrating Monarch butterflies stopover in PG, and it's very easy to pay them a visit in the free Monarch Grove Sanctuary. I've never seen so many butterflies outside of a butterfly farm. Also free and beautiful in PG: Asilomar State Beach. This is the kind of beach I could explore all day long. And though the tide was still kind of high, I did manage to see some neat things without getting my feet wet.

| Lots of pretty, small shells in the tide pools. |

| Green sea anemones |

| The black shell in the middle of the frame is a hermit crab. |
