My Favorite was Yerba Buena (Muey Bueno! Starts on PCH just north of LA/Ventura county line, right next to Neptunes Net(stop there for lunch). 11 fantastically fun miles w/ virtually no traffic even on the weekend takes you back up to mulholland/decker cyn. _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
