    At some point, I’d like to do a video myself on the almost never-seen parts of Santa Barbara: that only the locals know about. Indeed, you’ve hit the well-traveled tourist spots ... However ...
    Pendola Hot Springs, Hollister hot springs, Cold springs trail, Montecito Tea Gardens, Mesa Lane (hidden surfing) beach, Ellwood (old fishing pier), The remnants of the Japanese internment camp, Rincon and Ojai, fly-over the Clarke Estate (on East Beach), fly-over the old McCormick estate (where the Prince and Princess now live), Douglas family Preserve, More Mesa and Gaviota beaches (clothing optional), Rattle Snake Canyon, Mountain Drive “old hippie” community, Inspiration point, ... and, so many other hidden places in Santa Barbara (my home town).

      @@TheLoversPassport Chicago has a lot of great places and people. But since I have better memories I vote for SB. I'm sure many would disagree. I plan to visit this summer for the solstice parade. (Not likely) because of pandemic. Maybe the following summer.
