James Dean Memorial at Night from the list California's Bizarre Roadside Attractions

1 of 1

My brother and I stopped by the James Dean Memorial on a road trip in December 1998.

James Dean was a little before my time, but it was still interesting to see a memorial like this out in the middle of seemingly nowhere. The story left an impression on me.
