San Luis Obispo: 1949 Chevrolet "Roads to Romance" 

Yep. Been going here since I was a baby ...and now I paint here fulfilling a life-long dream as an artist.

Thank you for sharing, at one minute in you can see my driveway into La cuesta ranch.

That was neat, we love it here! Thanks for sharing it.

I worked at Cuesta Cadillac in SLO

Ive been to that mission

When shown theatrically, a brief "tag" featuring the name and address of "Your Local Chevrolet Dealer" would appear at the end.

Hearst castle was made with poured reinforced concrete not stone by stone brought in from Italy. True many pieces such as fireplaces, carved ceilings, choir stalls, marble statuary were brought from Europe which make this a one of a kind castle, or ranch house as Hearst called it, but the video is not accurate such as calling the town Louie instead of Luis! Neat to see the film from around the county though.

Atascadero the beautiful??? I was told Atascadero meant mud hole.

Funny how even to this day people in other parts of the country pronounce San Luis Obispo as San Luiee Obispo, which is a French pronunciation of the name Luis. As the advertisement states, California was a Spanish colony; the origin of the city name is Spanish and it’s correct pronunciation is phonetically Loo-eece; “San Loo-eece (Luis) Obispo.” Sorry folks. If the Spanish founded Louisiana it would be pronounced “Loo-eeceiana” not Luieesiana. Funny.
