 If you're ever out in San Luis Obispo in California's central coast, don't miss out on this "famous alley".

One alley... two walls... 20 feet tall... chewed gum as high as one can reach... residents say gumball alley loses 1/4" per year in width due to the "added" souvenirs of tourists... sweet or eeewww?

This actually helps provide some preliminary data for some tests I was planning to conduct -- thanks!

Ewww... ROFL But I love it! Very cool location and not a bad shot either! The sunlight is a little harsh, but good composition - I can see the bend of the wall on the back edge (due to the addition of gum). Very neat capture.
