Looks like a nice trip :) I grew up in Half Moon Bay, CA back when it was a small town that nobody knew it was there hardly. Even now 50 yrs later I Never get tired of Hwy 1 , or driving through the Redwoods from the bay area over to the coast through the Santa Cruz Mountains ( Hwy 9, Hwy 35 and various other small one lane roads) over to Pescadero, CA and the Pigeon Pt Light House. A great escape from TOO MANY PEOPLE in the bay area :)

Solvang is lovely still. Settled by Danish immigrants, who found the area to resemble parts of rural Denmark. Older still, Spanish footprints with Mission Santa Inez, and of course Chumash, who have been in that part of California long before Europeans. Try your luck at the Casino just outside of town. :)

Ventura Highway 101, my old stomping grounds for over 40 years! I lived in Santa Barbara, Ventura and Oxnard. I wished you also could have seen the San Marcos Pass 154 drive...what a drive! Take the Solvang exit next time and then exit in Santa Barbara to get back to the 101. Montecito, The Rincon, Mussel Shoals...paradise! And the next exit you must head to Ojai. Blue skys turn to Coastal Eddys and burn off after 12:00. After doing an all nighter at the Chumash Casino I'd pull off to snooze for a few zzz's near the Rincon...I lived in Port Hueneme the last 10 years of 40+. Yes I miss the area.... but I could no longer afford living in this area of So Cal after my husband passed. 💕

Very important to know Rincon and all the Ventura campsites require reservations now. 90 days ahead is all know if you show up in the winter months and the campsite you select has not been booked and you can book it online of course. During the best months you’ve got to get on that computer right away 90 days out, or you won’t be going I could stay here for many days we use a bring a car and drive up to the Santa Barbara pier for lunch or up to the Coldspring tavern on the top of the mountain above Santa Barbara at original stage. Coach stop with the original buildings. Lots of fun and good food. Have fun.

Arizona sure is "PRETTY" but California is "MAGNIFICENT". I visited California 15 times over the years and spent the equivalent of a full year there. The State has everything : Mountains, Deserts and the Ocean. People there live in a paradise but they don't seem to know it, mainly because living has become so expensive. In Santa Monica, there may be over 1 million people on the shore of the Pacific on weekends and there's no fun going there. State Park campgrounds near the Ocean are always full and you have to reserve on-line one year in advance, a thing I cannot do. Well, as usual, a very nice video, Russ !! RICHARD

My moms side of the family has been in Ventura county since the 1940's. grew up on these beaches but I've live in central Vally most my life but always love taking the 4 hour drive to visit. We were just down there a couple weeks ago and stayed at Emma Wood. Theres a very nice older gentleman that works there who helped me out with opening a spot that was closed because of the storms over the winter. I'm a spur of the moment type so it's hard to find places that acomadate the old way of doing things. It's $40 a night be lulled to sleep with the sounds of the ocean. Because of being down the hill from the 101 you really can't hear traffic over the ocean but the occasionall train ca definitely be heard. When I was a child my grandpa used to rent out one of the houses there in that group where you saw the stairs leading down to the water. What a great time we had there every year! Thank you for sharing this place! Hopefully your viewers will get down there to enjoy it's splendor! You have to go check out the Ventura Harbor and stop by Andrias for some fish and chips!

Been going to that spot and all along there for solace since the 80s, even before moving to the area from Los Angeles. :) Safe travels to you.
