The Pismo Beach Car Show took place this past weekend.   I used to participate by entering my 1969 Checker Aerobus and even was fortunate to win first place one year in my division.  Now it’s fun for me to be an observer and to roam downtown Pismo Beach and talk to the owners of the cars on display. 

The record-breaking heat added another element to the event.  I thoroughly enjoyed the warm evening weather as we watched the cars cruise the streets, although some of the vendors complained that the crowds were thinner than they expected.  If that was the case, it’s hard to tell whether it was the heat or gas prices (or both) that affected their business.
