Exotic Car Auction

Today Ernie, Dave, John and I went to day one of the 3 day McCormick's Exotic Car Auction in Palm Springs. They have over 500 cars on auction including the Batmobile with a working afterburner. Every type of car was here from Rolls Royces and Ferraris to muscle cars and even a 1939 Chrysler Aeroflow.

Visitors

This picture sums it up. We have been filling our faces around Palm Springs. This is at the street fair downtown Palm Springs, with Ernie & Joni (my cousin) who are down for 3 weeks to avoid the olympics. I and Joni each had a hamburger with the meat an inch thick, Ernie had the best pulled pork and Carol had a Johnsonville brat. Other days we went to the Yardhouse restaurant which had a half price happy hour with excellent food and brew. For Valentines we went to PF Changs for the best Chinese food we have ever had. They had a 2 hour wait but I was smart and made reservations, which got me a few points for Valentines Day.

Around Here

We just got back from taking the garbage away. Mocha loves to go for rides in the golf cart.

We went to the Kobe Steakhouse with Art and Margaret and Dave and Linda. It's our yearly thing to do here with Dave and Linda.

Before Art and Margaret left we went to the Cheesecake Factory for lunch. Here's the size of Art's hamburger. Open wide!

This was after lunch in the courtyard of the restaurant.

This three wheeled bike passed us. It has a Porsche engine in it.

Carol went for lunch with the women from the neighbourhood to the Jackalope Restaurant. This was outside of the restaurant. My cousin Joni and her husband Ernie drove down and rented a place here.
