I don't think it speaks badly of you; Ventura County has been a big well-kept secret until lately. Now the developers are going full-bore and I think the plan is to turn us into Orange County West (yes, O.C. is mainly east of V.C.)

If you get onto Highway 1 at Malibu and head toward San Francisco you'll be very close to it as you pass through Oxnard. It's home base for the Navy's Seabees.

Right, the home of Seabees - only reason I knew where it was, how to spell it and how to pronounce it. I thought it had a nickname, but now I can't remember it. Unlike "Mugu Gai Pan."

"well-kept secret"!!! I visited my brother-in-law that lives in the area (Mandalay Bay development), nothing is less than a $mil each :(
