Might a 125 yearold railroad bridge with two 56-foot riveted steel deck girder spans be at or approaching the end of its safe lifespan?
Kim please stop being such a negative person.

We have been to NZ 4 times as independent travelers. We were surprised that you mention Kinloch as a place where there's a lot of development. We went there each time just on a day ride drive from Frankton (where we stay at a timeshare place up on the hill with fabulous views). In Kinloch, we loved the scenery and the little cafe at their 'lodge". Had no black flies our first stay but they were out in force the next 3 times we went. Where is the development going on? It seemed fairly remote to us.
How fortunate you are. I did not realize one could visit there. I have only visited Santa Cruz. A great trip a long while ago.
It's in the item that starts, "While waiting in line at Marley Confections in Montecito...."
I was thinking the same thing about "sando" - when did we stop using the whole word. It just bugs me when words are co-opted to be "cool". AI def = "Sando" can refer to several things, most commonly a Japanese-style sandwich, a path leading to a Shinto shrine, or a sleeveless undershirt in the Philippines.
You mention a 'new' Summerland Cafe on today's description of today's post, but there was no mention of the cafe? Can you please share or correct the omission in the post? Thank you
No shade on their menu - looks nice - but where and when did everyone decide it was great to call 'em "Sandos"?
Maybe I will consult with my "Besties" and find out?!
I brought four on Nov. 1st. So amazing! Runā¦donāt walk! (Just leave some more for me!).
HaHa! Great comeback, Mark. Actually laughed out loud.
Yes, the city takes them down after the meeting.
FYI - the plans you linked to related to the Sears lot at La Cumbre Plaza is now returning a Page Not Found error.
Glass factory?
Thank you so much for this great information. The SB Historical Museum is one of our community's treasures. Dacia and the team at the Museum are to be commended for their dedication to preserving and highlighting Santa Barbara's remarkable history.
You are absolutely incorrect. I personally walked the project site throughout the summer and they were actively working - demo, grading, etc. The project is already 25% complete. It desperately needed updating and will be an incredible asset to our community.
Erik, I should clarify that that was the shooting range way back then.
Either Gibraltar Rd hairpin turn at West Fork trail headā¦or on East Camino Cielo between Painted Cave Rd and La Cumbre Peak?
For the robberies definitely set up cameras that alert you, these organized South American gangs are going in through natural areas to backyards all throughout affluent Southern California communities.
If you back up to a natural area, definitely put cameras out on the perimeter as well. Unfortunately, these guys walk through the natural areas completely masked up so even if you can catch them on camera, unlikely that they will actually catch them.
Hopefully they will.
Be smart with your valuables. When consequences are taken away for criminals, like they have been in California, people get very brazen protect your families and your loved ones while our state and local government do not.
Mighty Pilates is open ! Took classes their last week. Nice studio
LM is a great new addition to the Santa Barbara restaurant scene. The food, service and ambiance all were a 10. We donāt need any more mediocre restaurants, we have plenty. Such a great breath of fresh air Little Mountain has created for those who can appreciate itās unique dining experience.
Sounds like a Ty Warner managed project ā¹ļø
Yes, that was the name of the deceased owner of the house. We were told by the realtor that he had been in a retirement home for the last few years but came every afternoon and worked at the house. There were filing cabinets and shelves everywhere full of the postcards he designed. Iāve never heard of him was he well known in town?
Still At It!! Perfect.
The Horseshoe curve on Gilbrator Rd. I learned to shoot my Dad's 410 shotgun there in the 70's.
