How to kill a widget/process

When I open Activity Monitor I find that two processes gobble a lot of the CPU:

CaliforniaCoastalCam (a widget)
and
RadioRabbit (another widget)

I tried to delete the first but no matter what I type in the search field I can't find it! It is not in any of the widget folders. It is certainly no displayed in Dashboard.

For the second, I want to delete the prefs file. But no matter what I type in the search I can't get to it.

Any advice? Much appreciated.
 
Widgets are in one of these two folders;

Library>Widgets

User>Library>Widgets
 
the "widget" widget should also be able to delete them (click on the red circle with a white line through it to move the offending widget to the trash).
 
Yes Bob I did check the two folders carefully. The CaliforniaCoastalCam Dashboard Widget does not appear in either folder but does appear in Activity Monitor. Could it be set as "invisible"? Weird problem. (I did manage to delete the plist for RadioRabbit but I think it is just a CPU hog.) Thanks again for any suggestions.
 
CaliforniaCoastal may be called a Travel widget.

RadioRabit used to be Goodbye World.

Look for Widgets with those names.
