7/21/13 - San Luis Obispo, CA

We left Lompoc and drove to San Luis Obispo.  This is a really neat ltttle little town, one of our favorites so far on this trip.  We found an RV site at El Chorro Regional Park.  Then we drove into town to Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa.  They were having church services so we only got to look inside the open door.  This was the 5^th California Spanish mission founded in 1772.  We went to the nearby San Luis Obispo Museum of Art.  Afterward we went to Creekside Brewing, and then walked around the corner to SLO Brewing.  Just outside SLO is an alley with walls covered in bubble gum.  The waitress told us about this so we went to see it.  It’s gross but really cool.  We drove to Central Coast Brewing and the bartender there really knew about beer.  She also reminded us of Jim’s niece Anne-Alex in Colorado.  After leaving there we went to Tap It Brewing.  They won a gold medal at the Great American Beer Festival for their IPA.  Jim just had to have one.  He made me drive back to camp.  Then I fixed spaghetti and a salad for supper.
