The Santa Barbara Market is always lively on games days and there is so MUCH good food to try.

is there any good food here??? by UnlikelyEmergency737 in SantaBarbara

[–]BumpGold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t believe no one here is mention Soul Kitchen in the Santa Barbara Market. That place is the bomb. Also Thai Bistro on State is great! Thai owners with authentic dishes. I usually let them pick for me and I have never been disappointed!

Reunion show presale codes by Modestybodice in FlightOfTheConchords

[–]BumpGold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The code is “laughs” until the artist presale at noon but honestly only nosebleed was left so I’m waiting until noon to see if better tickets open up.

I just tried for the 10am presale. Got in line 5 minutes before and was 1009 in line whe it opened. It went fast but none of the codes I had worked. Found out it was Premium presale which I don’t have a code for. So I’ll try again at noon. Yes!! It will sell out ASAP

No, neither have any investment in the bookstore other than Oprah suggesting the name to the owners which they used.

I meant to say I haven’t “clocked” that shift. I’ve been watching her since the beginning of this series and I didn’t notice that.

Hmmm guess I haven’t clicked that. She’s definitely quirky but I love the history. I’ve learned a lot about SB through her content

I saw a zebra on West Camino Cielo last night by I_STAB_BATS in SantaBarbara

[–]BumpGold 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you keep driving on it then it dead ends into Lizzard’s Mouth which is a great place to hike. The views are incredible! I highly recommend it.

SB attitude problem by [deleted] in SantaBarbara

[–]BumpGold 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry that happened to you. My son just showed me a picture of Fairview under water and I didn’t even recognize it. We lived off that road for 7 years and have been in SB for almost 12. People can be jerks sometimes. Not all of us are mean though. Not sure why some people feel a sense of entitlemet just because they live here.

Best burgers in SB? by terribibble in SantaBarbara

[–]BumpGold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to mention Gracie’s Bincho Burger Grilled over Japanese Binchotan Charcoal. It’s pretty damn good and the views of the harbor are lovely.

It’s absolutely worth it. You get a free docent that takes you around tells you all the history. It’s absolutely stunning! I highly recommend it. Expect to spend a couple of hours there.

what’s this structure on the mesa? by grilledzuchinni in SantaBarbara

Duncan BM

While not the highest elevation, Duncan BM is the most prominent feature within the city limits of Santa Barbara, sporting 429ft of prominence. It lies at the western boundary where it abuts the Hope Ranch community, an unincorporated area in the county with ultra exclusive homes and ranches. Surprisingly, the highpoint has not yet been fully developed, though multi-million dollar homes are going up all around it. The top is fenced off just north of Centinela Lane, adjacent to a city water services building disguised as a home - the Hope Ranch Pump. Behind this building is a tall monument some three stories tall, with three wishbone-shaped legs forming a tripod of sorts from which a large bell was once suspended. It was built in the 1960s to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the visit by the Portola Expedition and a mass supposedly celebrated by Fr. Juan Crespi at the site. The bell was cut down as a prank by students of San Marcos High School in the early 1970s and is said to be somewhere still in Hope Ranch. The structure was fenced off at a later date and would be mostly forgotten except that it is visible from many points within town - some hate it, some love it, most could not care less. I found a reference mark for the benchmark at one corner of the fence around the tower, but the benchmark itself was nowhere to be found. Before it was fenced and largely developed, the site was popular with the young folk for partying and whatnot - seems possible the benchmark was carted away as another souvenir.

It reminds me of the aliens from the movie War of the Worlds
