Another great day in Northern California... Mark and I had talked yesterday about going to a car show that is held in Santa Rosa every year. There were only two Porsche cars entered and another three in the parking lot, my 911 included. But we all love cars here so I thought I would share. Mark teased me a bit about using the long lens on my digital SLR but I like the perspective it gives... Mark has more pics he may add later...

If you are eagle-eyed you may even spy Mark with his new haircut for a wedding he is going to soon...

The little yellow car is called a Mini Moke. A freind from high school bought about 25 of them from Catalina Island and he is restoring and selling them.

Mark got a bit glassy eyed and looked contemplative. I found out he was considering his preference for flatter paint surfaces... Not a glossy guy I guess.

You have been had John. Mark doesn't change his haircut no matter who is getting married. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Ooops... I hope jgara is not mad at me! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

A couple shots of Mark's favorite Mini at the show. Notice the patina to the paint. This car was very original...

One of the Mini's at the show was a custom painted car. It appeared to be owned by a woman who was dressed in Shagalicious period dress... Austin Powers was nowhere in sight so I walked right up and politely asked her to pose with her car. (politely, because I had been warned by Yopu to behave (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ) I was a bit shocked to find that she had clearly been asked to pose with her car before and snapped right into this pose.

Finally, for me anyway (Mark may post his pics too) is my favorite car at the show. It wasn't refined or restored and wasn't in great shape but I would love to own this...
