Big Clam Statue
I visited Pismo Beach twice this year. First time I didn't find the giant clam. Then the second time I asked for directions (terrible, a guy asking for directions!). I found it at the visitor's center near the pier on highway 1 through town. Big concrete clam about 8 ft tall. But as I was leaving Pismo Beach on Highway 1 south, I saw another one, excactly the same in front of a trailer/RV park. How many of these clams are there in this town?

Just wanted everyone to know about the giant clam statue as one enters the city from the south on highway 101 (I think). I believe it's on a traffic island, but you could pose with it if you're daring. Pismo Beach is famous for its clams, as we all know from an old Bugs Bunny cartoon.
