I down loaded the first half of the pictures, so thought I'd put them on the Pacific Forum for your viewing pleasure

Purple The Wonder Truck manages to sneak into quite a few

These first three are on Jan 01 in Cresent City, CA and just south of there in The Redwood Forest. Watch out for those big lumberjacks with headless ox's

Wow, Babe the Blue Ox looks different than the last time I was there.....

These are in Monterey along the the beach, lot's of seals

continuing south on the 1 thru Carmel we noticed the sign for Sue.

I can't be the only animal lover on this forum so I'm putting all the best San Diego Zoo shots on too

turnheadz · 01-31-2008, 01:07 PM

more animals, the tigers were not out and about

turnheadz · 01-31-2008, 01:09 PM

more animals, the elephant is getting a pedicure

The USS Midway aircraft carrier, WOW super neat

we were fortunate to tour the island while on the ship
that's me on the left, saluting

and Wayne in the brig

highway 101, between Oceanside and San Diego was our favorite strip
of course, we ate at the 101 diner
all sorts of nostalgic stops, and a street market where we bought Linda's b-day present.
The military school was at full alert, I think they were graduating.

turnheadz · 01-31-2008, 01:20 PM

can't get enough of those beach shots!! still along the 101

turnheadz · 01-31-2008, 01:22 PM

Finally, Donut Derelicts. Even in the fog, Art led us there

turnheadz · 01-31-2008, 01:26 PM

after D-D we caravaned to Cars And Coffee and Mimi's for breakfast

the day before that, we checked in at Lloyd and Gerry's and were able to get Wonder washed up and looking good.

turnheadz · 01-31-2008, 01:29 PM

afterwards back at L & G's it was sunny and hot
Wayne showing off his watch
what wonderful hosts, L & G are the best

our whale-watching cruise gave us a great vantage point for seeing things other than whales

I thought the USS Midway looked great with our flag
San Diego skyline
a submarine being escorted into the harbor
sweet ride(s)

turnheadz · 01-31-2008, 01:38 PM

pictures 2 - 4, look closely at the two guys as they get closer and closer to Purple The Wonder Truck
