When I was driving between college and home during the last century, there as a really good ice cream place in Arroyo Grande. Fabulous milkshakes. Buddies at Cal Poly turned me onto it but I can't remember the name (remember it was the last century).
A google turned up this place: http://www.docburnsteins.com/. It looks fun and they have model trains. Toot!

I remember that place! Was it called Bernardo's? Or something like that? The name is a vague memory for me from 20-something years ago. But I remember the milkshakes!

When I searched I did find a Burnardo's. Hmm, do they have two locations? That was sooooo long ago.

It's Touring the Pacific Coast or something like that. I think I heard about it here - so someone else must have it too?

Snap - I think what you're referring to is the Spring & Kirkendall book I keep yammering about, Bicycling the Pacific Coast. It was out of print for a little while but the 4th edition was just published in 2005. Thanks for the offer !
Cindy - Lee & I actually talked about maybe renting a car or an SUV for the trip home from Santa Barbara as an alternative to the train.
While the Amtrak would in theory work great, the bikes would have to be boxed up for the trip on that particular line (I know on some Amtrak lines you can just roll the bikes on board, unfortuantely the Coast Starlight isn't one of them). Plus I checked the schedule and we would roll into San Jose around 9:30 at night, IF the train's on time (which it almost never is), so in reality taking the train has a fairly high pain-in-the-butt factor.
Oh yeah, the Cajun Kitchen has been duly noted ! I love cornbread !
And milkshakes .... yum ... you guys sure know how to take care of me Not to mention you'll be Lee's new Best Friends.
