To the south of the San Fernando Valley are the Santa Monica Mountains. To the north of the Valley are the Santa Susannas. Episodes of the TV series Bonanza and Zorro were once filmed here, along with many others. The first discovery of oil in California was on the north side of these mountains. A well there became famous as the longest-producing well in the world, having been capped in September, 1990 after 114 years.

O! Chatsworth. How I miss your strip malls, hoodoos, and, umm, more strip malls.

I never went there. I was always partial to Baby Blues on Lincoln in Venice. I miss their food sooooo much!
