Hi Stan,
I have a client who has inquired about a fine art photographer who specializes in Big Sur scenes.
Do you have a website?
Thanks,
Ann

At this point, we have no idea how long the road will be closed. If you take routine medications, it is very important that you take steps now to assure that you don’t run out.
If you receive your medication via mail order, check your supply and order refills well in advance. We have been advised that the mail will continue to be delivered.
If you don’t already receive your prescriptions via mail, now is the time to start! Contact your insurance company and make arrangements to set up your mail order plan, then contact the health center to get your prescriptions ordered.
If you do not have the capability of accessing a mail order pharmacy, it is extremely important that you check your supply of medications and contact your pharmacy to request refills now!
An alternative option, to avoid driving all the way to Monterey, is to select either Cambria Drugs or CVS in King City, then advise the health center staff to change your pharmacy location. It is important that you take care of this now to avoid running out. Do not wait until you are down to the last day or two as refills may not be completed in time to coincide with your trip to the pharmacy.
The Health Center remains open and available to you.

Driving from Carmel to Big Sur in a couple of weeks. What is the best detour?

Hi Jane,
You’ll need to take Nacimiento Fergusson Road over the Santa Lucia mountains. There is a link to a Google map which illustrates this on our website. Follow the link on the front of our website at http://www.bigsurcalifornia.org

Hi Stan,
I have been going to Big Sur (Julia Pfeiffer State Park) for many years. This year I have reserved multiple dates through July in August. However, I want both sites at the park for my period of stay. Do you know of a way to find out who has Big Sur dates or if there is a way to trade dates with other reservationists? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
