You seldom see any building or any thing as old as that church - or - that bell, in California, or the US!

As originally built - the mother superior made them add a handrail after using it for about a decade!

Never seen one, only heard stories about the days theses things were used to race with then yanked out due to timing issues. Apparently there were a couple well known race family/teams from El Dorado Co back in the day(decades ago). Only stories, like the stories of allegedly some still sitting on properties, in fields.......uphill.... in the snow, both directions.

It's like our own little piece of the Sasquatch lore. 4-camsquatch?

Bravo!!!
Sounds like a fantastic plan and trip. I think the only way to improve, would be on a bike, IMHO. GS1300 maybe or any other comfy cruiser. To each their own and a bike isn't for everyone, inherent risks on each level, car or bike.

Bottom line, pick a platform and goat-for-it.

Thanks for sharing

We used to race with a fairly rich Porsche owner who would bring a 911R AND a real 550 Spyder to the races with spare engines for both. He mentioned once at our season ending dinner in Phoenix he had 6 of the dual cam engines ready to go in is "garage". I was told it held 20 or so cars. He lost several million with the big Madoff blow up but never skipped a beat!

Santa Fe - on a whim:

Most of my friends think I'm nuts, I'd rather drive any day of the week than fly. We just got back from 18 days, 13 states and 4500 miles of road trip out west with my family. Being from Kansas City and growing up a car guy I've always wanted to drive down the PCH and go to Bob's Big Boy for a friday night cruise. Our country is full of beautiful places and wonderful people that can only be seen and met on the road. This is my girls and I in Colorado.

Great shot - enjoy!

Ps Drive west some night, on Sunset, to the sea. You won't be disappointed, and, you can even grab PCH from there!
