They swam with the surfers, explored Big Sur, talked with Joan Baez at her Peace Institure in the Carmel Valley, toured the landmark known as Watts, kicked up sand with dune buggy drivers in the Mojave DEsert, mingled with the educational experimenters at Esalen Institute, rock-climbed at Yosemite, and in general found the variety of life styles that meet in California.
