Big Basin Redwoods, National State park.
From Wikipedia:
Big Basin is California's oldest State Park, established in 1902. Its original 3,800 acres (15 km2) have been increased over the years to over 18,000 acres (73 km2). It is part of the Northern California coastal forests ecoregion and is home to the largest continuous stand of ancient Coast Redwoods south of San Francisco. It contains 10,800 acres (44 km2) of old-growth forest as well as recovering redwood forest, with mixed conifer, oaks, chaparral and riparian habitats. Elevations in the park vary from sea level to over 600 m (2,000 ft). The climate ranges from foggy and damp near the ocean to sunny, warm ridge tops.

P.S: Do not make a terrible mistake in thinking everything with the word Rio refers to Rio de Janeiro, it's a very common name in Portuguese and this beach for instance is far from Rio ( the city ) more than 3000 Km.

I can't tell if Jarom is scared or picking his nose. This was on a really bad pirate ride that pretended to be a ripoff of Pirates of the Carribean. It was all metal and smelled like wet pennies. Some bad skeleton was roped up against a fake jail cell. A barrel pretended to fall on you. And there were at least two really loud foghorns.

The Laming family was a very prominent family, emigrating from England in 1881.
Whitsed Laming (Tonganoxie Mayor who was responsible for building the first sidewalks in Tonganoxie) helped to charter the first bank in Tonganoxie in 1889 - the Tonganoxie State Bank. However, it was reported that the First National Bank, Leavenworth (first bank chartered in Kansas), provided extended banking service to Tonganoxie as early as 1895. The Tonganoxie
State Bank was located for many years on the southwest corner of Fourth and Bury Streets. An article in a 1911 edition of the Tonganoxie Mirror indicated that “The Tonganoxie State Bank got through with remodeling its interior last week. The wood work on the inside has been made to match the mahogany fixtures, the floor in the lobby is marble tiled, and the partition between the lobby and business room is of marble.”
Foster (Bud) Laming, Jr., a descendant of the original Laming family, attributes the family’s involvement in the following early Tonganoxie businesses: banking, milk creamery, Inter-Urban Railroad, grain mill, Electric Telephone Co. and the first auto dealership. Bud Laming is retired and resides in Lawrence. It has been said that Charles Laming wrote to his girlfriend in England convincing her to join him in the small town as his wife. His thought was that it would be just a few years until Kansas City and Tonganoxie would grow together into one city. Bud’s nephew, and son of Tom Laming, Thomas Laming, Jr., now lives in Kansas City and manages several Mutual Funds.
It is unknown when the Phenicie family became involved with the Tonganoxie State Bank, but they were among the earliest settlers in the area. In 1929, G. L. And R. A. Phenicie both served on the Board of Tonganoxie State Bank. Both were sons of James M. Phenicie who came to the Tonganoxie area shortly after the Civil War. James was a farmer and businessman and served from 1884 to 1899 as a Leavenworth County Commissioner. He had a contract with the Union Pacific Railroad to provide the wooden railroad ties from Leavenworth to Lawrence. In 2005, the Phenicie heirs, Margaret Sanders Leighty and husband Pete Leighty left half of the original Phenicie 700 acres (three miles south of Tonganoxie) to a Perpetual Trust established at First State Bank and Trust for the purpose of providing grants to meritorious projects benefiting the community in and around Tonganoxie.

St. Louis is the second-largest city in Missouri, United States. It sits near the confluence of the Mississippi and the Missouri Rivers, on the western bank of the latter. As of 2020, the city proper had a population of around 301,500, while the bi-state metropolitan area, which extends into Illinois, had an estimated population of over 2.8 million, making it the largest metropolitan area in Missouri, the second-largest in Illinois, the seventh-largest in the Great Lakes Megalopolis, and the 20th-largest in the United States.
Before European settlement, the area was a regional center of Native American Mississippian culture. St. Louis was founded on February 14, 1764, by French fur traders Gilbert Antoine de St. Maxent, Pierre Laclède and Auguste Chouteau, who named it for Louis IX of France. In 1764, following France's defeat in the Seven Years' War, the area was ceded to Spain. In 1800, it was retroceded to France, which sold it three years later to the United States as part of the Louisiana Purchase; the city was then the point of embarkation for the Corps of Discovery on the Lewis and Clark Expedition. In the 19th century, St. Louis became a major port on the Mississippi River; from 1870 until the 1920 census, it was the fourth-largest city in the country. It separated from St. Louis County in 1877, becoming an independent city and limiting its own political boundaries. St. Louis had a brief run as a world-class city in the early 20th century. In 1904, it hosted the Louisiana Purchase Exposition and the Summer Olympics.
A "Gamma" global city with a metropolitan GDP of more than $160 billion in 2017, metropolitan St. Louis has a diverse economy with strengths in the service, manufacturing, trade, transportation, and tourism industries. It is home to nine of the ten Fortune 500 companies based in Missouri. Major companies headquartered or with significant operations in the city include Ameren Corporation, Peabody Energy, Nestlé Purina PetCare, Anheuser-Busch, Wells Fargo Advisors, Stifel Financial, Spire, Inc., MilliporeSigma, FleishmanHillard, Square, Inc., U.S. Bank, Anthem BlueCross and Blue Shield, Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, U.S. Department of Agriculture, National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, Centene Corporation, and Express Scripts.
Major research universities include Saint Louis University and Washington University in St. Louis. The Washington University Medical Center in the Central West End neighborhood hosts an agglomeration of medical and pharmaceutical institutions, including Barnes-Jewish Hospital.
St. Louis has three professional sports teams: the St. Louis Cardinals of Major League Baseball, the St. Louis Blues of the National Hockey League, and the St. Louis BattleHawks of the newly formed XFL. In 2019, the city was awarded a Major League Soccer franchise, St. Louis City SC, which is expected to begin play upon the completion of a 22,500-seat stadium in the city's Downtown West neighborhood in 2023. Among the city's notable sights is the 630-foot (192 m) Gateway Arch in the downtown area. St. Louis is also home to the St. Louis Zoo and the Missouri Botanical Garden, which has the second-largest herbarium in North America.

Opened in 1829 as part of a controversial movement to change the behavior of inmates through "confinement in solitude with labor," Eastern State Penitentiary quickly became one of the most expensive and most copied buildings in the young United States. It is estimated that more than 300 prisons worldwide are based on the Penitentiary's wagon-wheel, or "radial" floor plan.
Some of America's most notorious criminals were held in the Penitentiary's vaulted, sky-lit cells, including bank robber Willie Sutton and Al Capone. After 142 years of consecutive use, Eastern State Penitentiary was completely abandoned in 1971, and now stands, a lost world of crumbling cell blocks and empty guard towers.

Alfred A. Loeb State Park is a state park in the U.S. state of Oregon, administered by the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department. Located on the banks of the Chetco River east of Brookings, the park offers camping, hiking, fishing, swimming, and rafting opportunities. In the park’s boundaries are 3 rental cabins, 53 camping sites, a launch area for drift boats, a day-use area, and the head of a 0.75-mile (1.2 km) trail that the official Web site says leads to the northernmost redwood grove in the United States.
