Here are the absolute best driving directions to Ojai.

For those in Southern Calif. who are going to Ojai, follow these directions and you will avoid all the LA traffic.

For those already in the Los Angeles area:

Take the 5 freeway north all the way past Magic Mountian. Take the 126, (go left at the off ramp) and follow the 126 all the way to the end where it meets up with the 101. The exit for Ojai is just a short jaunt down the 101. Take Highway 33 all the way into Ojai. Turn left at Santa Ana (there's a stop light there), follow it to the end and turn right. Follow it along Lake Casitas, the entrance to the event will be on your left.

*Note: for those in the Pasadena area, take the 210 north where it meets up with the 5 freeway, follow directions above. You'll be thankfull you did!

For those in Orange County and south, take the 57 freeway north to where it turns into the 210 going towards Pasadena. Take the 210 all the way to where it meets with the 5 freeway. From there, follow the directions above as it goes past Magic Mountian.

*Note, go north on the 210 where it meets up with the 134, that way you'll avoid the downtown Glendale and Burbank traffic!

Stay away from taking the 101 all the way through the valley, it sucks and is a major stop and go situation! It's a total nightmare!

The 126 goes past a lot of farmland, and there's food stops in Fillmore for the hungry.

There is a back way into Ojai from Santa Paula, but it's long and has some nasty switchbacks.

By going this route you'll be very happy you did. Less traffic to deal with.

Ohhh... Nice Sig Ace. And Patrick I'll be looking fer those bottles.

Thanks Pete. I was bored at work today and so I decided to finally put one together. The skull is the one tattooed on me arm.

I surely hope to meet you at Ojai !! Be sure to catch my show or stop by and have a drink at the 7C's encampment.

And I'm serious about entertaining friends with my finest sleight of hand up close and in person...and free of charge! B)

Ah, so there's no faire at all this weekend?  I always thought this faire ran 2 weekends.

escondido (where you live) goes two weekends but alas girl another year slips by without the likes a seein ye at fair again! (ye really do need ta gets out)

I think the reason why I'm not running up to every faire all over Southern California is cuz I've done that all before. I used to go to a lot of faires for many years. Even worked at the one faire during high school. I guess I got slightly burnt out just over a year ago. I still like to go and all that, but only when they're close by now.

To those disappointed, I'm sorry. But iffn' ye go the first weekend of Escondido faire in October I plan on going. I'd say most likely Sunday instead of Saturday. Remember, that's the first weekend of that faire, not the 2nd weekend. That's when I'll be in New Jersey, most likely meeting Pyrate Phil. :D

Patrick, I'll be totally looking forward to meeting you and Ace, and the rest o your crew. We will have to lift a tankard or two together. :D No worries Christine, I'm sur sure we will run into each other sooner or later at one of the fairs. Besides I dont think it would be safe for two people who share the same thought process to be at the same place at the same time. "It's good to be the king." :D 4 MORE DAYS! :D
