We’ve been home now for a few weeks, but nothing really blog worthy has popped up …
Our local library branch remains covid-closed, so we ride our bikes to the Pacific Beach branch.
We were caught totally by surprise on the ride back, by Bomb Fest 2021 at Crown Point Park. The event is sponsored by Street Tattoos.
Bombs everywhere! I put some effort into the 2019 Bomb Fest HERE. I suggest you check that out for more info on the Bombs, then enjoy a few pictures from my phone in this blog.
Talk about a slammed chassis!, the hydraulics of several cars allow them to rest on their frames.
I always like the trucks.
Future Bombs, I bet there is more money in the tires and hydraulics than what the car is worth. I like the name of the truck: Chatarra Vieja (Old Scrap).
I have no idea how the wood dash is carved, but it is a piece of beauty.
Suicide doors and a sporty convertible.
A Hudson from the Dukes Club had the most chrome, but I say ‘Chrome won’t get you home.’ But sure looks good!
I have a new favorite truck:
Trying to take pictures while pushing a bicycle was a bit of a challenge. I'd not want to cause a scratch on any of the 500 entries. Next year I hope to do better, but it was time to continue home.
The Mission Bay Beach Club is opening up.
The Superbloom coffee and juice bar is fully open all year.
It serves all the coffee favorites of a major chain, along with organic juices. There’s outdoor seating, or enjoy a chair by the vineyards overlooking the bay.
The Beach Bunny is a seasonal rental of bikes and standup paddle boards.
It’s now closed for the season, but I could peek in the window.
The ice cream cart Summer Afternoons is parked inside until next summer.
Yet to open is Picnic with munchies and on-premise beer and wine. The Beach Club will be a nice addition to Mission Bay.
The City is still debating the Homeless vs Unhoused issues, that most major cities face. The latest feelings lean toward those living within an enclosure are living in a home. Hence this residence at Playa Pacifica on Mission Bay is a ‘home’.
as is this abode, also at Playa Pacifica.
These homes are lined up along East Mission Bay Drive.
Mayor Todd is asking for the City to permit the use of South Shores as an LTVA for those in 'homes'. South Shores offers facilities including restrooms, showers, dump station, water ...
I’ve suggested to Fran we should move down there while there are still a few beach front spots available. Lets see … on the beach with FREE water, FREE trash, FREE sewer … not a bad deal.
I hope this city figures out if it wants to continue to be "America's Finest City", or become 'America's Finest Shelter'.
Borrego Springs celebrates the start of the Snow Bird season with Borrego Days. We'll be joining in the festivities again this year, blog to follow.
