Flew into that airport for the first time about a month ago. What a great little airport! There's a nice lunch spot within walking distance that is a 50's diner in a converted train car.

Glad you had fun at Oceano, Brett.  We also do have bicycles for loan so you could head out and explore the coast and restaurants that are a bit further out.  Hope you will come back for Celebration May 10-11!!

Here is my latest article for AOPA Pilot online:  http://www.aopa.org/flightplanning/articles/2013/130425the-show-must-go-on.html
Hopefully we can all get our aircraft out of the hanger and support our fun events at airports.

Now that WeatherUnderground, Weather.Com, NOAA weather and the WeatherChannel are all in agreement, I might relax!  Looks to be high 60s to 70s for our Friday and Saturday event next weekend.

 

I know I don't have to tempt you, but we have great live music both days: San Luis Jazz Band [Friday night] and Central City Swing Band [saturday day].  We are collecting items for military care packages.  Fuel discount, cool raffle prizes, free admission [saturday], beach-side, lodging discount. We aren't more than 2.5 hours away from most of California....so come on!

Jolie,

I was going to ask if you had a web broadcast...

You can imagine my giant smile hearing about good weather and web cams at the festival!

Good luck. Have a great weekend.

Best regards,

I am always skeptical of weather forecasts, but I'm betting on Accuweather for May 10 and 11 here in Pismo Beach!!!!  Come on over and enjoy our little CA beach airport, right on the Pacific Oceano.  We've got the greatest beaches!!  See you here!
