Here is a photo that we took over the weekend while driving through Pacific Grove. It seems they were having the Councours d’Elegance show this weekend and I thought this car looked amazing. The cherry red Lamborghini Diablo is a very beautiful vehicle.
If any of you readers have some photos from the event to share please feel free.
That’s all for today.

This weekend was nice to get away. Dos Palos High School just started and the helpdesk tickets have been pouring in. I really need time with the family to get away. We really weren’t sure where we were going but we knew we wanted to get to the beach.
We ended up driving to Monterey to do a little shopping and then we drove over to Pebble Beach where there was the Concours d’Elegance event that was going on. Lots of really exotic and expensive cars. We were able to snap a few photos while we were driving through.
Finally, we found an easy to access area to the beach and we pulled out the blanket and the umbrella and the Barbeque Grill to do a little cooking. We even saw some people getting ready to go out scuba diving. I thought to myself, these people are crazy. The water had to be about 30-40 degrees.
That is all for now. Thanks for reading.

The Tuesday before Thanksgiving of this year I was on my way to work and a semi (Yes a big rig) jumped out in front of me. The CHP officer said I was lucky to walk away from that. I was using my in-laws vehicle to go to work because mine was getting repaired and it was the first day of the valley fog. The truck was carrying some hay and it jumped out in front of me. I didn’t have enough time to stop but man did I try. There was a bridge that I was on so I couldn’t try to swerve out of the way to avoid it either. I literally stood up in the Geo trying to stop the car. I ran right into the last tire on the trailer rig. The tire of the trailer hit the front of the car and the rail along the trailer hit the windshield. If I would have gone any farther I would have been decapitated by the trailer rail. Just thought I would let you all know! I am okay though. The car didn’t have any airbags or antilock brakes. This is a photo of the car on a trailer so we could take it back to my in-laws house.
I am grateful for being alive this year in 2009. Thank you all for viewing. Have a safe and Happy New Year!
