I’m timing it tomorrow morning to drive from San Luis Obispo to Santa Barbara so that I emerge from Gaviota Pass at sunrise. Imagine coming out of Shelob’s lair at 75mph to be greeted with a brilliant California sunrise. I’m speechless every time.

And then I’ll need breakfast. Anyone know of a good place to get breakfast in SB? So far I’ve been to The French Press, and I’ve been told that Our Daily Bread is another great spot.
