A treat to behold. The annual Cabrillo Club #6 antique car show. With great live music and singers.
Organizers Sharon May and Ronni Madruga produced this year’s program.
Vintage cars lined the Portuguese Hall parking lot. A $5 dollar pancake breakfast with eggs and sausage greeted the onlookers. Free to look. $1 to vote the “best of show” winner. The proceeds of which go to the charity of that winner’s choice.
Free to gander at the fabulous cars. The color, sheen and remarkable restoration bedazzles the eyes.
And the talent on the wonderful rendition of songs from the 70s and eighties, such as “Stand By Me,” “White Rabbit,” “Wake Up Little Susie,” and the show-stopper finale of Amy Steven’s rendition of Janis Joplin’s Me and Bobby McGee, ”Freedom’s just another word for nothing else to loose.”
So apt amid the contemporary chaos.
Add to all that bounty, the combined talents of the G-String Daddies, singers and guitarists, Kevin Kohl, Les Gray, Hugh Gaskins and Johnny Rinestar. And you drift into memories of better times.
Positive story. Great memories, great tradition, great cars and music. Three cheers.
Did this already happen? Odd no date was mentioned.
All verbs are in the past tense, but you’re right, a date could have been mentioned.
