Tomorrow I head for LA on a vacation we bought last April. I had forgotten about it till about 3 weeks ago but am excited to go. Any "A" things to do next week in the LA, San Diego area?

The San Diego Zoo and Sea World are worth seeing. And if you're in San Diego stop by and help me install that flywheel I got from you .......

Nethercutt Museum in the Valley is like walking around a High Fashion Model party. They have a Sports Coupe and a Deluxe Phaeton.


Peterson Automotive Museum in LA. One old dusty Coupe, but a real '32 or '33 3 Window coupe.

Cars and Coffee outside of Thousand Oaks somewhere. Sunday mornings full of Lambos, Packards, and Ferrari's look commonplace.

CW Moss in Orange, CA is a parts vendor that usually has a couple of Model As on display. Downtown Orange is an interesting place to visit, not far from Disneyland.

Not a thing to do with cars, but the Getty Museum in LA should be on your to-do list. Well depending on your taste and if you like art and history that is...... it will take you most of the day to see this collection of world history.

Old town San Diego is a collection of really good multi-national cusines....you won't go hungry here. Just a couple of blocks away is a navy museum and a ship you can walk on and see too.

From either San Diego or LA you can pickup a couple of different cruises to the Islands just off the coast, Catalina Is or the Channel Is off of LA/Ventura areas.

And if you want to get crazy there are a couple of indian casinos in so cal, they usually have some pretty good shows going.

Enjoy!
