Greetings from Oxnard!

[RiverDave]

Out here for AJ Barrett’s wedding! Kids are loving the beach!

 

[RCDave]

Holy moly. What are you feeding these kids? They are growing up so fast

 

[old rigger]

Great looking family!

Those are Shants [emoji38]

 

[was thatguy]

Hollywood beach?
If you’re at the end of Ventura road look at the railroad track crossing right before the beach...that’s where the scene in Back to the future 2 (I think that one?) was filmed. Where he lands the car.

See the apartments right on the North side of the road before the tracks?
That’s where I lived for a year in 1994.

Thems like Milk Money jorts... .

If you drive by this place, it was where I worked, 1978-'79. (when I wasn't at Cottonwood Cove)

This was my apartment when I lived out there. Could check out the waves at California St and the Fairgrounds from my balcony. Helped me decide if I was gonna go to work that day or not.

Are you the father of the bride?

 

[hawgty55]

My first job was a valet at the embassy suites there and I lived across the street from the hotel in the harbor. If you want a quick eat do pepes on silver strand Beach awesome burritos if you're up early Mrs Olson's is the spot smothered potatoes on point or donuts in the am spudnuts is the go too!

 

[T frog]

I was stationed at Port Hueneme, was a Navy Seabee. Great memories of that area, enjoy.

 

[Turnup]

Soon as I saw your pic I was gonna say Sea Fresh! Its a nice kick spot down there. Your shorts are fine there, just stay out of the 'strand

 

[Racey]

Man, I hate to say but both places have gone way down hill. Pepes was sold a few years ago and fuckin BLOWS now. Mrs olsons (who is actually karine Olsen the grandmother of Kirra drurry one of the girls killed in that big crash on havasu a couple years ago) sold to brim and he moved it over to the harbor about 5 years ago and it’s gone way down hill too. The place that opened up in mrs Olsen’s old spot (Hollywood beach cafe) is actually very good.

Sea fresh is good. Toppers pizza is bomb. Lookout burgers are great. Other than that this place ain’t really great on food. Never has been. Ok to pretty good sums up the cuisine in the area. Unless you come to my house and I hook it up!

 

[Tank]

Warming up for the big event.

 

[Tank]

Even tommy gun got his picture taken.

Well its definitely been awhile since I've been back. I guess everything doesn't last forever. Loved living there for the 4 years I did.

 

[Flying_Lavey]

Its a little further north from you, but if you had said something you could probably stayed at my family's beach house in Ventura. Its about 600' from the beach.

does anybody think of RD sounding like this

 

[stephenkatsea]

Tank - I assume the Rudder Room is still there and not far from your place. Believe that's pretty much a must visit for RD's first Oxnard visit. Really bummed to hear about Pepe's.

 

[stephenkatsea]

We lived in Hueneme twice. First on Village Rd in a newer home between Moranda Park and Ventura Rd. Very near the “Back to the Future” train scene previously mention. Later we lived beach front in Anacapa View Beach Homes. One of the best views on the coast. Much better than Malibu. Some good food back then; Whales Tail, Port Royal, Tugs, Cabo, Yolanda's and Pepe’s were a few. Nice beach living. But Oxnard itself already sucked, even back then. There was a Court Restraining Order that the gang from La Colonia-Oxnard were not to be anywhere near the gang from Hueneme. Beach front tear downs were fairly common for under 100K. Some of the movie Tora Tora Tora was filmed in Port Hueneme Harbor. Had it been just my wife and I we may have remained in Hueneme. But, the schools sucked. The neighborhoods just a few blocks from our homes sucked. We bought a new home off Santa Rosa Rd in Camarillo in 1993. Good community, good people and very good schools. Great place to raise our 2 daughters.

Some Port Hueneme trivia. Many of the streets in that small town have lady's names. It is said that during WWII it was common knowledge among the Navy sailors that Hueneme had brothels. Non legal of course. These lady names on the streets are those of some of the more famous local prostitutes of the era.

 

[Ziggy]

The thing I know most about Port Hueneme is that's where my BMW inventory landed and was processed
