For the Dogs.....Hot Rods "n" Rock "n" Roll ! pics

I attended a fund raising event yesyerday in San Juan Capustrano,Ca. It was to raise money for a relief fund for shelter animals. It was a sunny 75 degree perfect day{eat your heart out} !

Anout 300 cars showed up, they also had vendors booths and 3 bands for entertainment.

Thought you might enjoy a peek at a HOT January Day in sunny California !!

 

First band up was the "Hot Rod Trio". My freind Buddy Dughi fronts, with his wife Susie on bass, and the drummer is way cool.

 

a few more of the rides

 

Then the 'Flying Crowbar" made its entrance on stage. The front man for this band is another friend and former guitarist for John Fogerty for many years. Mike Canipe is retired now and has this local band to keep sharp. His son Ridge Canipe who recently co-starred in "Walk the Line " playing Johnny cash as a kid at the beginning of the movie sat in for a couple of songs also.

 

it was a great day and for a worthy cause

 

Wow.. Great pictures! I love this RPU.

i like the cars but not you rubbing in the weather!!! i think it hit 20 here today but it isnt supposed to get out of the teens for the next few days!

 

hated to "rub it in' but to be honest it was unusual even for here.

 

Great to see someone is having good weather. I think i need to move! It's colder than a Well diggers butt here, and doesn't look like it's goin to get any better for awhile. Oh, i forgot, we're goin' to have a heat wave next week- 25 degrees!
Winter "SUCKS"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

well if it will make ya feel better, they say we have rain on the way

yea it does rain in California

 

...I wish some of that warm weather could come out of my computer screen, it's 12 below zero here, sposed to get all the way up to -2 today! Mite warm up a little this week, into the teens/twenties which will feel like a heat wave to us.
