Good morning, Santa Barbara ☀️
Here’s what we have for you today:
- Amanda Velasco deep dives into the return of Lobster Jo’s
- Cottage Health plans expansion in Buellton, Tom Schultz reports
- Kaitlin Sweeney has the latest on Bruce, the English bulldog
- And a shoutout to reader Darin Garard, who correctly guessed the location of the photo in yesterday’s newsletter: Hendry’s Beach, or Arroyo Burro Beach, for the non-locals. This is a repeat win for Garard. 😊

This day in history

🥗 Before he became the public information officer for the city of Santa Maria, Mark Van De Kamp 25 years ago wrote about the opening of Ralphs Fresh Fare on the corner of Carrillo and Chapala streets. At the time, it was the city’s first new supermarket in 30 years. If nothing else, it probably is one of the best designed Ralphs in the country.
