Speaking of cars, my wife and I drive around and sometimes see modest houses with up to four cars parked in front, filling the driveways and curb spots in front. And then we see garages with their doors open and the garages are stuffed to the gills with junk-- no room for the car. This seems not uncommon here. The typical garage is full of furniture and storage boxes. And most houses have an alarming number of vehicles associated with them. And in other neighborhoods, where the houses are in a dismal state of repair,
tiny and falling apart, you see cars parked in the yard that are surely worth more than the house-- new and top of the line. We conclude that lots of people have a very twisted sense of what is important. We think this does not bode well for the future.
Now we get into a few new and old Ford Mustangs...
This one has not been restored, but could be driven.
Like new!
This miniature pony did not seem very happy.
I remember these Mercury Comets-- braking from 60mph took 200 feet and you'd end up looking back to where you'd been. Also severe understeering due to heavy frontends.
This is a Studebacker Lark.
A modern Mustang. Supercharged. Good brakes. Good handling. Lots of safety features.
These pics finish the tale of East Broadway, and were taken near the Stubbs BBQ Memorial.
Now it's time to switch to the car show...
Clearly, it was not just about Ford Mustangs! But I will have some Mustang pics...
These were taken on Broadway, east of Avenue A.
This completes Avenue G but from there we moved to East Broadway. And then we went to a Ford Mustang Club car show, and yesterday we went to an area on Avenue K. And we examined a playa lake. In all of those locations I took pics.
