Thank you for this! Will check out the trail ASAP....
I wonder why we need another smoke and vape shop when there is already one close by on De la Vina. Especially when smoking and vaping are not allowed in public places in Santa Barbara.
The upper part of La Vista Del Oceano is indeed public, despite the (old) signage. Welcome! It's my bench shown in the opening photo.
From the circle at the top of the street, take the trail alongside 1703 down to Santa Fe Place and Cliff Drive for a scenic circuit. The trail is a public easement over private property, so stay on it. And go at your own risk. Enjoy!
Are pop-ups the cruise ships of hospitality?
I've walked almost every street in Santa Barbara, and La Vista del Oceano is easily one of my favorites
There's more in the Noozhawk article about the trees.
What has happened with the Canary Island Date Palms that were removed from Refugio? Were they able to be planted elsewhere?
I'm sorry for the loss of your friend.
Your tree photos are really wonderful, but the idea of sitting on that bench gives me vertigo!
I also find it almost impossible to connect around the intersection of State and Las Positas - the Gelson's parking lot is a tough spot, and the light in front of Kyoto is a total dead zone. (Verizon/Subaru, and every other car I've owned.)
From what I heard from an employee, the Public Market is taking over the space and it will remain a bar, but they're closing the kitchen.
Maybe they could not afford to pay the rent at the PM. As I understand it can be very very expensive.
Can we please stop hearing about the Duchess of Nothing and her endless pursuit of fame? I personally wish this couple would just do what they said they wanted, which is live a quiet life, out of the public eye. I think everyone supported that decision but if they wanted that why are they going out of their way to be in the news? They are constantly seeking attention by whining and spilling dirty family secrets and lies for MONEY? Seriously they act like spoiled rotten five year olds.
No family is perfect and anyone who supports them should look at their own family and think about every sibling disagreement and comment made in jest and whether they would want their child or sibling to distort the facts and sell them to tabloids and any other media outlet they can?
When Megan's own father did that prior to her wedding everyone felt sorry for her .... now she and Harry are doing the same thing and people lap it up.
I think they are disgraceful and it makes me sick that people who know zero about the Royal Family, except what they have watched on fictional shows like The Crown seem to fawn all over them.
Thanks for the correction!
Piroshky! Love ‘em. Just checked, on 19 not 20 April. Thanks for keeping it interesting!
It’s been a part of human diet forever and is still very common throughout the world. But yeah let’s go with the conspiracy theory. That’s always the easier way to explain something you don’t know anything about
I heard the insects are actually 5g microchips controlled by Hunter’s laptop and Fauci!! Do your own research sheeple!?!
Your ‘walk with me series’ is wonderfully addictive. To see it pop up in Siteline is the best treat. Thank you!
The name of Meghan’s brand is American Riviera Orchard Montecito. She should keep Montecito out it and stop with selling of our private little town.
Eating Insects?! Does the world economic forum and bills gates sponsor UCSB?! Have they lost their minds?! What is wrong with real food?!?
Amen.
It’s located at the end of Presidio Avenue next to the Main Post Office. It’s an homage to Chinatown.
Surprised about Shalhoob’s. They have a lot of real estate at the public market and it’s always packed these days. I believe they run the front bar area (as well as back bar and restaurant ) which is very busy.
Same thing happens in the Land Rover on Cliff Drive at Mesa Lane (right by the signal/school).
The adult store below 154 is called “The Riv.” It would be funny if they both had the same name.
Ha! I was going to post a question on Nextdoor about CarPlay dropping out at Milpas last week but never got around to it! I drive a Porsche Macan and have Verizon. Basically every time I drive South on the 101 between the two Milpas exits, my car screen goes black for a few seconds and it kicks me out of my Google Maps navigation. It rarely happens when driving north. I figured it must be happening to other people too. Could there be some type of signal jammer in that area? Seems like more than just losing service though, because I when drive through areas where I know I have no cell service (Hope Ranch etc) it doesn’t suddenly restart the whole system.
We have issues with CarPlay cutting out too (Verizon + both of our vehicles). It happens close to the train tracks/bird refuge and sometimes drops 2x when I head southbound right before the Hot Springs/Cabrillo exit. Glad to know we aren’t the only ones.
