I liked that part of Huntington Beach a lot better back when it was old and run down. It looks like anywhere else in OC now.

I'm waiting for Steve to chime in and say Lone Pine. He wasn't wrong very often.

The corner of Inyo St. and Hwy 395 just a few miles south of Manzanar... the Film Museum and across the street is the DWP office.. I used to drive 395 daily when I lived in Mammoth Lakes working as an engineer For Amerigas. Actually heading up there this weekend

Got it Justin. The fresh, curvy blacktop is the 101 Conejo grade. Taken right above the northbound weigh station. Kind of a steep trail. Was surprised to find a model airplane airstrip on the opposite side of the 101, 1/2 way up that hill. I was getting a good air show from my vantage.
