Carmel Highlands, CA during my 1200 mile roadtrip to Washington state.

After spending some time visiting a local hilltop golf course, I encountered a couple of web photographers who showed up close to sunset intent on doing a Lambo shoot. Lively conversation ensued and they asked me if I wanted my car to be in the shoot. Of course! Drew a few spectators in the...

Day 1 continued, onward from Morro Bay: As it was now a bit later than I had originally planned and I had made tentative dinner plans with friends in Santa Cruz, I pointed the car up the 101 north, an initially delightful drive through San Luis Obispo and the wine country of Paso Robles...

Seemed to be a Corvette show starting on Stearns Wharf. Had a few heads turn and horns honk as I passed.
