Description
A drive along the "Coast Highway" (PCH, Route 1), in California, exposes one to some of the most beautiful beaches anywhere. As you drive long the coast it becomes a beach beauty contest. Pismo is one of my favorites.
The name Pismo comes from the Chumash language word for tar, Pismu' , which was gathered from tar springs in Price Canyon near Pismo Beach. The tar was a valuable product which the Chumash Indians used to caulk their seagoing canoes, called tomol, which traveled along the coast and out to the Channel Islands.
