Harris ranch is great. If in a small plane check Xwinds. I once
couldnt land there and had to go onward towards San Fran in a 152.

another spot - just went to this weekend - Techachapi Muni - closer to
LA, but had fuel for $3.50 a gallon self serve. In a windy pass but
easy airport. Watch for gliders just south and coordinate in Unicom -
but no prob. And $3.50!
