taken to trask

i was searching through old files today. got a request to use some pictures for a car show flyer and t-shirt. so that's kind of fun, right? will be interesting to see what they do with them. trusting them not to eff them up. trying hard to not tell them i'll set it up myself. you know what i mean...ever seen really, really badly laid out shirts? so cross your fingers.

anyway, i found this shot of ernie's chevy. it's for sale. maybe it's sold already. saw him with it at pomona last month. chatted a bit, but then totally forgot to shoot a picture of it. so, sorry about that.

this was from march at the garden grove elks club. he was trying to run that show at least once a month. wonder if it's still going?

buick eight

another from the elks' club yesterday. ecclectic mix of cars, as you can see from this one to the muscle car in the background. never know if this show is gonna be busy or not, but the latin gents always show up to support their guy, ernie, who runs it.

a guy came over to chat while i was taking some pictures of it. was guessing what year it might be; i dunno. said he had just been driving through garden grove and saw it going down the street, so he kinda just followed it and ended up at the show. thought it was really stunning. 

i told him about the show over at featherly park, which i didn't go to, as i had limited time out of the house before i had to get back home. seems to me he walked around a bit more then took off. i wonder if he happened to drive on over to the other show. i'm curious as to what was there, and will be looking at flickr to see what people post up there.

ernie—good tunes, good show.

got the call for entries for the oc fair. what to enter...what to enter...so many to choose from. any preferences?

just a favor

no, i haven't gone to the dark side. just posting this for the owner as a favor. 

i've run across him many times now, usually at the latin gents show, and he sometimes asks for pics of his car. can't remember the history of it anymore, but it's special to him. usually it's crammed between the kind of cars i like, and i never really get shots i like of it.

he happened to pull in at the monthly show at the garden grove elks club yesterday, and parked off here by himself. so, why not take another shot of it? managed to get a couple of the latin gents' cars in it too.

and what's up with the elks not putting the show on their online calendar???
