How about we start a thread or a section on the site just giving general information about Santa Barbara...Like good restaurants, good hotels/cheap hotels, things to do while in town...etc?

I would love to also stop by one of the vinyards for some tasting as well.

I'm pretty sure it will give the out of towners a good time too.
